Very powerful words Gary showing how love can be split and sadness can dwell but the love of the children stays strong.

Wow, my friend...this is devastating. Love becomes betrayal, but fatherhood keeps you standing when everything else has collapsed. The contrast between who she was and who she became cuts incredibly deep. Powerful write. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Strong words fill this piece, it has sadness and pain and a powerful statement about a broken relationship where values differ. Nicely written it evokes emotion from the reader. Well done.

It\'s funny how when young we\'re all Smooth and clear Skinned. Then end-up like a 10 by 4 of Dorian Gray.
Good Write.

This feels like an ex- footballer whose best years are behind him.
From rich to poor which happens to a lot of them.

This carries the flavor of a past era but still applies. Lovely rhyming and meter make it almost musical. Nicely done

Jabberwocky, this is one cutting piece. The chess imagery carries the speakerβs bitterness toward an ending that feels less like victory than mutual defeat. Dark, uncomfortable, and certainly provocative, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Not sure if this is highlighted by the trial in America, or mistrial as it turns out.
You seem to hear about this more and more, and you always hope they get hung if they\'re not insane.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
What a devastating poem, Jabberwocky. The innocence of the children, the trust they still carry, and the sheer betrayal at the center of it all make this brutally hard to read...and that is exactly why it lands so deeply. Haunting work, my friend. Yeah, no dry eyes here. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

There are tragedies hard for the average person to understand. Why a mother would kill her children but then like other things we don\'t understand all things have their causes and far be it to me to judge. I have known men that have killed infants and young children and they have very troubled minds, some pathetic and others not knowing what they are doing. Very well written it is haunting and chilling as well as heart rending.

Jabberwocky, this is wickedly funny. The whole thing has that dry, dismissive bite where the politeness somehow makes it even nastier. π Great fun, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Judgements made in situations which might affect me directly feel perfectly valid. Judgements in any other direction I would have to examine. Neat clear write though without ambiguity.

What a beautiful and quietly brutal piece, Jabberwocky. The garden feels full of love, intimacy, and familyβ¦then the final turn changes the entire landscape without needing to raise its voice. Excellent poem, my friend. πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬

Some glue, a shelf. Toothbrush holder. I have the exact article.
At least your wife could provide a soft landing for your cup pieces should you change your mind...

What a riot, Jabberwocky! You turn a shattered household treasure into a tender memorial, then casually dispose of the marriage in the closing seconds...warm, wicked, and perfectly timed. Loved it, my friend! πΉπ€ππ―οΈπ¦ββ¬
