Conspiracy Theory

Witty and subtly poignant. A whole love story in a few couplets. Not a hint of artifice, just a touching story told in a way that only poetry can, a stream of images and observations, scenes and exchanges. Bittersweet and reflects a man of deep observations and experience, of even deeper humanity. Thanks!

\'The gun dealer is a model citizen\'
(people seldom realise, just
how many guns are in circulation
in USA
and how such a small percentage
create all the issues
and yet, how the very existence
of all those decent citizens
that practice safe gun handling
and ownership, processes
keep the government, from getting
too ambitious...)

such relatable imagery
and impactful emotive bravery
so many of us, have shared
in such similar events, but
most of us lack the bravery
to word our hurt, so acutely
(I hope these words
have some, cathartic healing
valuation, to you
dear Poet
so that it\'s not just your readers
who benefit
by your purposed utilisation
of poetic therapy)
thank you! a great read

Love poem which I\'m prepared to read only because you wrote it Phil, and therefore I\'m guaranteed a smooth read, free of saccharine sentimentality.

loved this, a great read
dear Poet
(more meaningful when there\'s an evolving thread
adding to those syllable count, depths
succinct wording, as only a beginning
to poetry\'s euphonious brevity)

Brilliant!

be it rock or feather, a polaroid pic

we cling to things, that our fingers
can feel
to anchor our memories within
to safeguard our heart\'s, needs
to never let Time, ravage
that we most fervently, cherish...)

You could not have given your poem a better title Phil .. it stands out from the page and sets the scene perfectly for the body of its entirety .. A more than merely moving series of treasured recollections and moments wrapped in a poem of their very own .. and most sadly of all such an enjoyable read .. Neville

You made the connection very clear - not unusual at all, Phil; a very moving portrait of loss, grief and remembrance I\'m sure many will relate to.

This touches the core of many a break-up Phil and will be sure to waken lamentable memores for some - -.those final few lines are so moving. A heart-wrenching read of final appeal when love has to say a last Goodbye.
