Terrifying, when you put it that way, downright terrifying. The inherent caustic tone blatently querying owns such pride, as it were, the soul shivers. She took of the tree because it--and thereafter they clothed themselves with fig leaves, whilst hiding from the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day. Piercingly rendered with excellent imagery and a killer poignancy.

Always looking at the form of your poems Tristan I was first taken by the horizontal and then vertical read. The dual meaning woven when putting the two together. The question (doubtful of the cursory answer usually given to such a question) Followed by the vertical follow up implied in if you do prove it by admitting remorse. Here the mind falls into weaving out of thin air what the remorse is about. The word sin is introduced and one can take it as betrayal or as involvement with the one speaking. Are you feeling bad for betraying me or conversely do you feel bad about your involvement with me. The duality is a great mix. I may be well off base but this came through to me. Loved the creativity and for that a fave

Short but strong. It asks deep questions and makes the reader stop and think about their actions and feelings. Well written!!!

Your words convey a deep longing for self-awareness and confidence in one\'s unique value. It\'s a relatable and inspiring sentiment! Well done ๐น

...there is just one you/Not twenty, or ten, or two/In all of the whole world through/God only made one YOU.\" How you remind me of that song from the 90\'s. Forsooth, while many before us have whatever, still you\'re you and there\'s only one you. I inherited much of my loving daddy, and of my loving mommy, but I\'m not nor ever could be either of them. Beautiful isn\'t it? Adroitly rendered in strikingly eloquent brevity with excellent imagery and those delightful poetic effects such as rhyming, and the play on words etc. I love it. Thank you for sharing, dear Tristan.

Knowing what one is and has to offer is key to valuing who you are. A beautiful write using alliteration as well as a wonderful message. If we had always known.

You have really described what it\'s like to be me, sometimes I think it is because I have to speak Italian, which is my second language and I\'m also a person who hates confrontation so my nervousness comes right to the surface when I have to discuss matters I dislike, a superb write which is more than just a bit relatable I thought it was just me... Your first 3 lines are exactly me. Kudos. Maybe that is why we can actually write our emotions.... ๐น

It\'s like reading a stunning confession to the self and it is stunning, in word and image. I beheld the image as the bell of a Horne, as in: \'blow your own horn,\' that is to the tune of lies to conceal the jester, as it were. A brilliant poem, exceptionally so. Very well done indeed.
Kind regards,
Tony.

This should be printed in a Gothic script and framed likewise, then hung at the entry to all houses of assembly. When some would feign deny it\'s reality, fearing innately the sheer madness, they must be calmed since this is a cute definition of aka reality. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

For most poems I ignore the form of the print on the page but for yours I have learned that there is a message there as well. At first I saw a martini glass and thought of how alcohol greases the mouth. Then I saw the upper half of an hourglass and speech flowing while life is going. The poem itself speaks to me of of covering with words what one does not want others to see. A distraction and when alone I distract myself with speech as well. The final few lines indicate change in a way (Stop it epic fail just drop it) the end of speech and therefore the distraction. Most lovely my friend

Oh what motivated ye, o poor impoverished one? Fear of total loneliness? Masochistic tendencies? A great portrait of someone (because I doubt that is really you, Tristan) with dependency issues.
