Evading The Truth.
L. B. Mek said:
\'Listening, is the same.
So many people just hear,
Just hear
and never listen,
And once more
they do not understand,
Do not understand
the true meaning,
The true meaning
of the things they hear.
So once again
they evade the truth,
The truth
that is there.\'
(just love the musicality you\'ve imbued into this verse,
by perfectly showcasing the art of purposed repetition in poetry, Andy
this is such a wonderful reading experience
it\'s like a verse, just waiting to have music written for it and performed
a lovely write!
thank you for sharing my friend)

We have these great five senses, but in life, the sixth sense is probably the most important. Truth can be interpreted in many ways, and usually signed off as such.

A surface conversation:
\'How are you?\'
\'Oh, having a terrible time\'.
\'Erm. I thought you would say \'OK thanks\'. I didn\'t actually want you to say that. Doh! Now I gotta listen to your troubles for about three hours!\'

Those starry spaces must mean something for us earthling dear Andy and one day I am sure we will know who is out there - a verse to ponder and thanks for sharing.

\'The moon shines down on me.
I look passed this wondrous sight
Into the darkness and see the stars.
I look passed the stars each a memory,
A memory of a loved one,
And into that darkness I go,\'
my thought\'s too, have ventured
to those silent plains, Andy
and have found a twinkle or two
to help me believe
there\'s hope, enough
to invest and
\'seek in that great, Perhaps\'
as Rabelais, supposedly
said it, best...
(love the music choice, dramatic
like the pointed, initial moment
before we make any choice in life
but then
it continues to portray a rather mellow
if lofty
endurance strengthening, energetic musicality)
lol
like I know anything about music

It’s one of the ideas I have always dwelled in
And you gave words to my ideas
What if somebody in parallel world is watching
What he shall think
It’s intriguing as well it gives a smile thinking about it

There are spirits of our angels and loved ones somewhere Andy in a place we can\'t comprehend ..... it\'s a belief which falls naturally to man but as you know has been clouded by religious practices.

This is what is wrong with the country. People just can\'t read. I don\'t know how many signs I\'ve put up in bold. Chivas regal drop off point. I mean, how hard can it be.

\'Why don’t these peasant\'s, know\'
cos they ain\'t realised yet
that Kardashian-\'esque\' way of cheapening, life
is a true peasant\'s
self-degrading way, of escaping reality
and not
that get-rich-quick, scheme
it\'s made-out, to be
so cheap alcohol, aplenty
to drink their self loathing\'s, depression
in-to their unattainable: Tomorrow\'s..
and the cans, well they\'re for hurling
at all those houses, priced seemingly
so far, out of reach

Probably a can from when I infiltrated the factory that makes the lager. They found it diluted, with the water I had added, spat it out, and tossed the can in your garden! lol.

It\'s another respect issue or maybe i\'d go further, it\'s a sign of contempt. Just return the emotion. I get all sorts thrown into my garden, I just keep my head down.

indeed
when \'We\' gutted
the fear-based, moral constructs

(rightfully, in most scientifically logical
respects)
from society\'s
cultural wisdom and underlying mannerisms,
\'We\' neglected to place a stoppering
equivalent, to minimise
our losses, of the civility
way of life
so many bled, to uphold and protect..
(an arrowed write
to the heart
of all the gangrene, decay
in our
progressively \'woke\' modernity)
when Nietzsche wrote
that absurdly, abused term
\'God is Dead\'
I believe, if anyone
read that full text
rather than
merely quoted it, for convenience
they would quickly realise
he was pleading for us to consider
\'Now what...?!
How da F\'ck, we gonna replace
all those upholding makeweight\'s
for polite civility\'s
decorum and restraint.
Now! ... What?\'
