This poem brings to mind several images. The snake on the banner (Don\'t tread on me, the severed snake representing that unity is important, the snake in the garden that tempted Eve and God said you will bruise his heel but he will crush your head) The serpent of the Mayan people. I remember grabbing a six foot rattler by the neck and couldn\'t turn loose out of fear of being bit till I could sever its head. There is an inbred fear of the serpent in man. This is a powerful write very symbolic.

This is really interesting! I would say that at the beginning, the high is sunshine and rainbows, but it sure can feel like hell. Drugs will never be for me!

Eye-opening and striking: “White horses with wings,
Gliding through white clouds,
And the presence of God
Beckoning me to kill the Devil.”
Repetition -“The Devil didn’t die” reinforces the persistence of inner demons.
Personification -Devil and God act as presences within the self.
Nicely written.

Aside from other meaning I find it most interesting the images of pots of gold at the end of rainbows winged Pegasus and God and the Devil all in the same category. It sends its message well. Lovely

I really love this. It beautifully blends dreamlike imagery with a deeper inner struggle. The contrast between the peaceful visions and the lingering presence of the Devil makes it haunting and powerful. Very well written dearest Tittu 🌹 A fave ❤️

I am alone at home, it\'s past dusk..dark. Sara Bereilles is singing Island on the stereo- a wistful, soulful song...and I am reading this poem. It slows down the time, and I read it again- \"Twisted path of the mind.
Peaceful visions of rainbows
And pots of gold.
Flying spirits circling around
The golden riches\". Hard to forget poem. One that demands repeated readings.

I absolutely love this poem — it resonated with me on such a deep level. The atmosphere, the raw emotion, the haunting transformation… it all comes together in such a powerful, unforgettable way. The final lines especially gave me chills — that twist with the blood-red moon being your own eyes is just brilliant. This isn’t just a poem; it feels like a dark myth or a vivid nightmare come to life. Truly unforgettable. Very well written dearest Tittu 🌹❤️ A fave for sure!!!!

I must have jumped the gun on #tbt (throwback Thursday) with posting up \"the old home\" and \"child, ONE child.\" 🤣 This unflinching lament from 2011, is built on a chain of rhetorical questions and stark imagery that interrogates the human condition. It features a tone of relentless pessimism yet, its very persistence suggests a refusal to be numbed, making it both a cry for meaning as well as a declaration of despair.

Honestly, while I agree with this interpretation, I also find it comforting that there is a constant in life.

A powerful poem with some great lines and concepts. One that stands out particularly to me is:
Who\'s free while still entombed?
Whose fears ever find release?
We are all exiled from the womb.
Death owns us, we have no peace.
Very nicely worded my friend

Dear, Tristan,
Honestly, I didn\'t try to analyse this. I really enjoyed it for what it is; a poem full of the horrors of night. Obviously you are in your element for it is brilliantly composed. If I can\'t sleep tonight, it\'s your fault.
Sweet dreams?
Tony.

Wow, an amazing poem, my friend. This poem explores themes of fear, mortality, and the struggle between the natural and the supernatural. It presents a vivid confrontation with death and the primal instincts that arise in the face of existential dread. It is set against the imagery of a dark, foreboding night under a full moon, where the poet experiences a transformative encounter with death, embodied as a predator. The poem evokes feelings of terror and vulnerability, highlighting the fragility of existence.

Took me three reads to crystalize the impression it left on my mind.
I felt ( I am sure quite erroneously) it depicted the visceral process of loss of innocence as we grow up. It almost drew the picture of struggle...
