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. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

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. πŸ˜‚ Great fun, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Racist? Moi?
Doggerel Dave said:

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.

I understand what you\'re saying. But we have a Weak Government. One empty suit replaced another. Eunuchs all.

What a beautiful and quietly brutal piece, Jabberwocky. The garden feels full of love, intimacy, and family…then the final turn changes the entire landscape without needing to raise its voice. Excellent poem, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

The twist in this one made me think and that is what poetry is supposed to do as well as feel. Nicely written my friend

A poem on poetry is by no means my favourite kind. However, in your case I\'ll make an exception here...

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! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

A poem of loss some for the better some for the worse put to a bit of humor. It is always best when we can laugh at our losses. Good one my friend

Tristan Robert Lange said:

What a terrific piece, Jabberwocky! The rhyme races along with all the excitement, strategy, and glorious chaos of children at play…then circles around and sends everyone charging off once more. Loved it, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

A most clever wording to describe an old game I remember well. Nostalgia measures one\'s age and here is a game gone out of style long ago. I love your clever rhyming and meter in this work and combined with the nostalgia it gets a fave from me.

Jabberwocky, this one cuts deep. It starts almost casually, even cruelly funny, then the emotional weight arrives hard when the children enter the picture. Powerful piece, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Here irony becomes humor and reality at the same time. All things happen for the best, at least that is what we tell ourselves it we want to remain happy. Well written my friend

Jabberwocky, this is outrageously cheeky. The confidence just keeps escalating until it becomes its own punchline...bold, shameless, and very funny, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›
