The poem reflects on the dangers of false humility and the hypocrisy that can arise in the guise of spiritual or moral superiority. It critiques individuals who occupy positions of authority or influence while lacking genuine virtue, ultimately suggesting that such pretentiousness will lead to a downfall

I love the clever wordplay and ironic tone very impactful. Sharp imagery ‘riding atop a horse named Grace’ is brilliant!”

Hanging humility on the loose nail of pretense often results in one\'s pants falling down. A fun read Tristan with more metaphor than I was in for. Well penned my friend

Nice one! With Grace as a horse, how would we handle her and for how long? Very interesting to follow the thinking trail here. 🕊️🙏

I\'ve not looked into this poem too deeply. You can tell I haven\'t, with my inane comment: This sounds like it could refer to Popeye. Not now, Popeye, you get in everywhere. lol. (he would, of course).

I feel like individuals who turn away from God deny a generation from God\'s power. This is a very interesting poem, well done

Dear, Tristan,
The \'forever twilight\' can drive a fellow mad, like purgatory, that awful waiting game, pleading for forgiveness whilst the world abandons you. The only hope in Bastet\'s eyes, watching you, seeing you and a way to find love. A remarkable poem from a remarkable poet.
Wishing you all the very best,
Tony.

Such a powerful reflection on pride, influence, and the ripple effects of one person’s choices. I love how the repetition and imagery bring the man’s journey and its consequences to life.

A most interesting write of how individuals interpretations distort and exaggerate over the years until the original is hardly recognizable. This happens unfortunately in the creation of myths, the passing on of religious beliefs and writings and history itself. Nicely written

Genuine question- how do you write things like \"Necrotic hopes buried in Aphrodite’s tomb\" or \"Sleepless are nights of a nighing soul\"?
Another question- except fave, what else can this poem be?

I hear the stillness between your lines,
where even the wind forgets its name.
The cats keep their counsel,
eyes like coins from a currency no longer minted.
Somewhere, the goddess sleeps under stone,
and the sea has swallowed its own song.
You sift the dark for a single grain,
and the night, patient as a tide,
waits for your hands to open.

\"Chest\'s chambered millstone sinks\" What a great line with such metaphoric implication. Never thought of the heart as a millstone but it fits so well for many with a heavy heart especially when cast upon a sea of guilt. Most lovely tor that line alone a fave

Falling, Failing
arqios said:
Hearing “Falling, Failing” as a song changes the feel completely. It’s not just a confession in ink, it’s a lived moment in sound.
The steady, blues‑tinged groove gives the verses a weary sway, like someone nursing a drink at closing time, while the chorus lands like a release: raw, simple, and aching in its repetition. The bridge, with “Your silence shocks me, like a violent shove”, cuts through the smoothness with a jolt, and in performance it feels like the emotional peak before sliding back into that resigned, late‑night refrain. It’s the kind of song you can imagine echoing in a dim bar, where the audience feels every drop of that slow fall.

Friendship said:
The poem explores themes of heartbreak, longing, and emotional turmoil in the context of a romantic relationship that is fading. It conveys a sense of desperation and a yearning for reconnection, highlighting the pain that often accompanies love. Yet it deals with feelings of loneliness and sadness, as the speaker grapples with the decline of a once-strong relationship. It reflects on the struggle to cope with love\'s challenges and the desire to rekindle a lost connection.
