My Spinning Mind
Fay Slimm. said:

A haunting plea for a chance at life - and so poetically expressed that this piece ought to be wider read Phil - - the feel of mind-spinning confusion really comes through those two questions in stanza four - -- must have this in my list of favourites - - loved its powerful flow.

The Greatest Questions
L. B. Mek said:

like 4 seasons
4 pillars, as cornerstone
anchors
that make-up, the majority
integral aspects
of our interactions
and each
a juxtaposing opponent factor
to each..
this be that duality
in all things, Humanity...
(just a wonderfully, contemplative
sharing of insightful wisdom
inspiring others
as a thought provoking, nudge
of a read..)
thanks for sharing, dear Poet

Snowflakes are quiet

indeed, four of the very finest .. each one needs more air time and to be noticed for what they are .. I hope many will now follow in the wake I purposefully leave behind ..

The Hammer
L. B. Mek said:

\'You learned to wield it like a craftsman’s tool\'..
it amazes me, that there is
such innate - difference levels
and the sheer unfairness
morbid, reality of it all..
while I trip, to keep up
with my all-encompassing
firestorm emotions
that love, inevitably
invades my life with
as I remain, trying
to tiptoe, my timid rope walk
in our supposedly, mutually
reciprocated, relationship
the person, across the table
of our emotional sea
is so calm, calculated and
methodical
in keeping themselves, capable
of breaking free
at the slightest of whim or inkling..
just
so unfair, the level of difference
in our callousness of heart..
(clearly, a write
I related to, at such an intimate
level
thank you! for choosing to share, dear Poet)

What Do I Know Of Love
L. B. Mek said:

for me, it began
with a phone call and a lively \'heya\'
and it continues, even in nightmare \'or fantastically daydream, form\'
she may have left, but the love
it continues, because I allow it to..
(thank for sharing, dear poet
a wonderful read
and a realistic portrayal of romantic love)

What Do I Know Of Love
Doggerel Dave said:

“Pure fiction”? Well don’t do it then!
While I’m no fan of love poetry, this says something. Ambivalence? – yes….

Weeping Wall
Paul Bell said:

I suppose the next great wall, hopefully to topple, will be , North-South Korea.

Weeping Wall
L. B. Mek said:

it fell, mostly
to the collective, Will
of a generation
that wanted to separate themselves
from the morally bankrupt circumstance
that was, their enforced inheritance of Fate...
and that\'s the symbolism
the Berlin Wall still has, for me
a statement, to Testify
\'We\' are Not: our situations
and circumstances in life
\'We\', have a choice
however miniscule, in scale
to Choose: our path in life!
(a great theme, to your write
and an especially poignant read
in these most segregated
of Time\'s,
thanks for sharing, dear poet)
Happy holidays
and a peaceful New year 🍻

Weeping Wall
Fay Slimm. said:

Those hammers and picks must have brought tears of deep pity for the many who climbed in vain Phil - your explanation of what a weeping wall means taught me of the porous nature of such walls so I see now that the Berlin Wall had caused and was soaked in the blood spilled by those who lost liberty - - so tragic --a most moving read my friend.
