Maybe dressing as The Fonz might do it for me.

A good write about a symptom many have of wishing we were something else. Although genetics has something to do with this so does environment and desire. We must take responsibility for ourselves. Loved the rhyme and meter in this short poem.

Metre and Rhyme and Irony
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Jabberwocky, this is gloriously cheeky. You set up metre and rhyme, then immediately start poking holes in your own rules. Loved that. πŸ˜‚ πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Jabberwocky, yep…that realization stings. Sometimes what keeps us writing is not love itself but the hurt left behind after it. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈ

Hello, Jabberwocky,

A very well composed poem. Our muses have many moods or perhaps our moods have many muses, that said, I enjoyed this poem, especially so, the use of language, a hint of quaintness found me.

Kind regards,

Tony.

As they do..it seems..unsatisfied..seek the greener side of fence...from the painting of your poetry
I think you\'re truly blessed..time..and view..
change what was new...to..boring..everyday
But in the end...a years long friend
Can recognize the true....
Was always the beginning

Family relationships, it seems mostly cause pain somewhere, sometime. Longterm association, long term changes. I felt for you in your summary.

Damn, Jabberwocky…there’s a whole childhood sitting inside those few lines. I’m sorry you had reason to write them. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Consciousness then the key:
To be β€˜am’ ain’t enough.
Prove that and then I’ll be
Happy it is no fluff.


More serious debate on AI is needed . Enjoyed your quatrain; mine above a tribute,Thanks.

Very clever so much put into so few words very nicely worded in rhyme that has its final impact in the last two words. Wow! a fave

Great versification, but deluded; there\'s always something to slay, and if with or without steel the right target is located, then perhaps that is progress.

Love this one and take it as metaphoric as well. We all wear armor against the forces outside of us and at times there is no enemy and no need for the armor. Well done my friend

It is beautiful when peace takes hold of a song and settles into the emotions. The song could be placed within the semantic field of what the French call *savoir-vivre*.

A great poem that brings to mind that old saying that idle hands are the devils workshop. Keeping busy often helps get one\'s mind off one\'s troubles

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Jabberwocky, what a strong poem. Setting private grief beside all those unfinished chores makes the moment feel honest and familiar. You cry, pull yourself together, and go finish what needs doing. I felt this one. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
