Nods of agreement at reading your piece of exposure dear Andy - those with phones to their ears give me a right scare in daylight not to mention their appearance in darkness.

Good experience by the sound of it, Andy.
Humour in such situations makes a big difference, and they sound like the kind of people who would really enjoy a ringing endorsement - and in poetic form too.
Your words were good stuff by any standards.

Only The Lonely.
L. B. Mek said:
so these lyrics inspired the spine to your worded anguish, Andy
caught you off-guard, maybe
in that realm where a few good days lined-up in a row, for a change
and you felt the trickles of whimsy, awaken from within, too easily
then back - without a parachute
you were swirling in that cyclone pain of remembrance
and wilting, in the face of unrequited yearning
still, my friend you\'ve been here before
so when those gushing tears stopped forming streams
and dwindled to mere droplet puddles, once more
you chose: to look ahead and bravely smiled
\'I got this! my beloved...\' you whispered, to that part of Joyce
pulsing within each gifted breath, you learned to treasure
eventually, when your trembling fingers - calmed
and your stoic British resolve, resumed
eyesight - blinked dry, feet - back-up and sturdy
stubbornly facing, that semblance of reality
you\'ve learnt to accept, willingly
grateful steps - moved, to replenish your spirit
with a few sips of a sobering - stiff drink
and finally sat back down, before a blank screen
let your fingers - dance: to the cadence
of that poetic genius, you choose to share with us...
\'behold: ye all
his worded testimony
to fruits, that blossom
from a nurtured love\'s: undying fortitude
of unflinching, loyalty!\'

Your shortie (my own technical terminology - of which I have a whole repertoire) just about says it all in the simplest possible way - I could get to quite like that applied to a vast array of human activity.
And thanks for the Flying Pickets - bought back some old memories, plus they were good.

L. B. Mek said:
I like the play on words Andy,
although your words cut a little too close to the bone, for me to nod and smile along
\'see, this cesspool virtual reality: we title society
politicises every aspect of existence
to the extent, we\'re taking nature walks
with VR goggles plastered to our eyes
while exclaiming wonder
at this pixelated fields of polarising lies
we seldom realise
is poisoning: our very understanding of freedom...\'

dusk arising said:
When did a meeting of many \'leaders\' ever amount to a true meeting of minds anyway. For each has their agenda. They will not be confronted with anything they do not already know. Their well rehearsed rhetoric will be aired and little change will take place.
Once again it is a political move so that one man can appear to have tried to be a messiah, the saviour of our world talking over the heads of those who do not have the longevity of their peoples interest at heart.
A very thought provoking piece today Andy and of such great importance to all life on our home... this planet Earth.
There now exists a time when being right or righteous is far from any use and appears to fail the future of everything.

you have such a wonderful ear for the music of poetry, so many times I choose to listen to the music you accompany to your write\'s, before I read the words
and often I find there\'s a symbiotic chemistry between your poetic lines and the melody you expertly choose
truly, a wonderful gift/ear you have Andy,
\'God\'s country\' is simply stunning: Fountains Abbey, Ribblehead and those Washborn reservoir\'s in all their scenic glory, surreal in that atmospheric night..
personally, I\'m drawn to shorelines more than mainland - I am just sucker for that coastal hum of waves breathing to n from, in-sync with my pulses beat..
\'Last of the Summer Wine\', for me
\'is the sound of my father laughing - knowingly
while I watched - him, thoughtfully
a treasured memory!\'

The virtue of such an arrangement will be that virtually nothing will be agreed upon and what little is will be virtually ignored in practice, although the pollies involved will make a virtue of their virtual participation.
