Tristan this could be called a murder love ballad it has a gothic flavor but at the same time could be taken as totally metaphoric and speaking of the death of the relationship not the person per say . The rigor mortis being nothing more that the stiffness of touch in a cold relationship. the pale and blackening face nothing more that change of emotions on the face of one that is dreading the view of the other or black anger at their continued presence. A relationship where one once cared but no more. Either way it is a descriptive poem of death either of the person or relationship or both. Ghostly indeed. Very nicely written

Well written, your poem explores the themes of lost love, betrayal, and the haunting nature of memory. It depicts a relationship that has soured, leaving the speaker in a state of despair and emotional coldness, even after death.

What a cool form! I will need to try sometime. It\'s so intricate and I like it a lot! As for the experience, certainly a message that shows trust issues on one part.

A most interesting dialog where absolute truth only exists in the mind and trust seen by one may be deception seen by another. In fine there is no truth only belief and trust is relative to perception and faith. A lovely wirte Tristan, thought provoking

whether you believe in it or not, it is affecting the lives of those around for sure, and that\'s really scary and sad to note

I hate slugs...but I love alliteration. And the message, of course. Well done!

I missed the 11th one then - wot is it? Probably related to Popeye. In which case, don\'t tell me the 11th one. Oops!

A lovely write of a putrid group that in their slime of a world of filth proclaim it as the only worthy measure of reality. Well written and nicely worded to give the feel of sticky ooze that it is. Also applies to politicians and rabid followers. A fave my friend

Agree totally. It also closely mirrors not taking authority in vain. That’s abuse and misuse.

Devilishly Dreadful: God Save the Jack

Brilliant write I more than enjoyed, Tristan. With you on your commentary when \'hypocrisy wears a noble mask\" . Not going near the sound cloud...πŸ˜‚πŸ˜Š

Devilishly Dreadful: God Save the Jack
Paul Bell said:

If this was today, I could see Jack the ripper going crazy over spring heeled Jack and his exploits. Just not on Gov, we can\'t have people like you running around London scaring people when I\'m trying to kill them. Mind you, in today\'s London, both of them wouldn\'t last five minutes.

Devilishly Dreadful: God Save the Jack
Friendship said:

A bit of a twist for me, yet l enjoyed it. Your poem explores the intersection of class, crime, and identity within the context of contemporary British society. It contrasts the mundane reality of a witness\'s life with the sinister events that unfold, culminating in a confrontation with a seemingly noble yet malevolent figure. The poem critiques social decay and the fear that arises from a perceived loss of safety and moral integrity.

sorenbarrett said:

Tristan, I love this style. It works so well with the intermittent interjections from either party. It tells the tail of spring jack not well known in the United States but I know historically was quite the thing in England. Very nicely done for this season of the year it shows shades of darkness. Well done, my friend.

Grande Gauleiter of Grotesquery
Poetic Licence said:

I think he has proven beyond doubt he has no regard for other life except his own, happy for putin to keep killing Ukrainians, supplies Israel to the teath so they can commit genocide, blames every ever committed in America on immigrants. All from a man who feigned injury to get out of military service and is the son of immigrants, maybe if Americans put the gun down, that might cut the crime rate, anyway enjoyed the read

Friendship said:

The poem critiques authoritarianism, particularly the absurdity and grotesqueness of leaders who prioritize power and control over human life and dignity. It questions the legitimacy of their actions and the societal acceptance of such governance.

Somewhere actually, between extremely little and none.

Wish with all my anger and irritation that this little gem would do it.....

Too real to smile the one shakes the bones of government in place and will put a frown on their face. Love the alliteration that adds force to the words.

Tainted Rose
Paul Bell said:

Love always starts with rose-coloured glasses.
Isn\'t the rose a fantastic flower, though. Beauty surrounded by thorns, as if she knows at some point she\'ll need protecting.
Would we all go through it again, probably.

Tainted Rose
Doggerel Dave said:

Going to interpret this as I find it, Tristan: a glorious rose caught by the passage of time, chronicled in rich poetry.
Should there be a metaphor involved somewhere, I\'ve missed it!😊

Good write T. Someone\'s never a wilting (a rose, that is) and we knows him! lol.

Tainted Rose
sorenbarrett said:

There is a balance of beauty and disease in this poem that puts beauty in the past and stark ugliness and death in the present and even that guarded by thorns. A poem mixed with light and darkness.

It\'s going to take me a while to get my head back in your way of thinking, I think I know this person (is the picture meant to be that dark or is it my phone). Enjoyed my journey back to the dark, don\'t forget Mr.Tristan your contribution to the fusion please.

What a perfect piece for this time of year, I see the creativity, talent,, darkness and torment of the mind has not dwindled, have fun

I must continue to honour your creativity and talent, Tristan - as here. But it don\'t half leave me feeling a wee bit poorly at times...

Feast Your Eyes
Friendship said:

Your song \"Feast Your Eyes\" revolves around themes of loneliness, existential dread, and the interplay between life and death. The imagery of ghosts, tombs, and decay reflects a sense of confinement within one\'s own mind, emphasizing the burdens of personal struggles and emotional weight. The repeated invitation to \"feast your eyes\" suggests a juxtaposition between the grotesque realities of existence and an acceptance or acknowledgment of these darker aspects.
