Heart breaking

Powerfully penned, Tim. Excellent tribute my friend. It’s a tragedy indeed, sometimes I don’t recognize the world anymore. Appreciate you.

Silencing beauty is one of mankind’s (and I use that term loosely here) gravest mistakes. We need beauty to get through what comes

This is the kind of poem that doesn’t ask permission—it reports from the wreckage. “A poem that will remain unfinished” is a brutal, honest truth, and the blood imagery isn’t sensational, it’s earned. I like how you refuse comfort here—no soft landing, no false resolve. The idea that the poems must replace her voice because they have to is devastating. This reads like a witness statement, not a performance. Necessary, angry, and painfully clear.

This one hits hard. I’ve watched that video over and over again.
I saw another where an agent told a protester, “If you raise your voice I will erase your voice”…while I’m thinking, then the thunder of the masses will drown him if he does that. I can’t wait for the trials and all the video evidence.
We will say their names forever so they are never forgotten.

Powerfully penned, Brenda. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

Nicely done Crim…

Chère C.,
‘Where my metal is tested’….
Painting with words!
And then/than (what do I know) the striking art work.
Marvellous work!
Warm regards, Gus

Strongly done, Crims. The strength over fear is always encouraging to read, and to see. To overcome is a human goal always.
Your write defines that well.

Drieks, this is great.

Powerfully penned, Drieks. Excellent lyrics and a stellar arrangement my friend. Nicely done per usual. Appreciate you.

Awesome on so many levels…

Agreed with Cipher so many great stanzas, you even came with the word play, to cool Lady.

Outstanding, girl! I can see Poe, sitting in a hardbacked chair pulled around backward so he can lean his arms on the top., and he’s tapping his toes, girl, and smiling big, while whispering, “Damn, I wish I were that good!”

This is so beautiful, I can see why you both were complimented.

Chère F.,
Thank you so very much for your listen!
It really means a lot!
Faith and I salute you!

Warm regards, Gus

I’m looking forward to further compositions of you, dear Gus! Of course, i would also appreciate a further collaboration with you.
In German there is a big difference between the substantive and the verb.
The wave = die Welle
To wave at someone = jemandem zuwinken. In German you can simply say
Herzlich (Warmly),
Elke

Great collab. This is beautiful.

Hi Kay
