A Great Divide

Poetry

July 18, 2025

So much pain sent within a shockwave Voices turn silent when riddled with fear Wearing a face that only appears brave Underneath it stirs a torment more severe Out in the ether the air has grown dense Seems the grass is dead on the...

  Im reminded of the old adage…if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Goes right back to your other poem…gotta read the fine print. Believe the lies, trust the cardboard cut out caricature, you get what you deserve. Hitting nails on the head with a jack-hammer, as usual, my friend

  Damian, I read and reread your poem. Took me into the heart of chasing rainbows and the stark reality that often is at the other side. Superbly crafted poem.

  That hits with a quiet force—like courage stitched from trembling threads. The contrast between silence and the mask of bravery unveils a moment of deep vulnerability, almost like a portrait of someone holding themselves together just enough to get by. It carries the weight of all the things left unsaid when fear takes the reins.

Wax-Like

Horror, Poetry, Uncategorized

July 18, 2025

Vulnerable... My wax-like existence in the presence of your flame makes my eyes drip with tears. This constant bleeding of my soul... This neverending torment... My waxy soul will sometimes avoid the world's flame, and my running tears will dry. And my wax figure will be silent... tears dried...

  I think that open vulnerability is a great strength, in a similar vein to how admitting ignorance is actually a sign of great intelligence. It’s easy to melt when you feel more than most…,most people wish they could burn like you.

I am lost in the flame, all burnt up. With a fire lit beneath my palm, And at the fingertips, I aim true to twist and turn my delight, Upside down, lost in her beckoning sight It’s her hot-lipped fire I see all around Yet...

Gentle Death

Poetry

Death has a face of beauty, that not many can see....For in death our soul is set free.... Smile upon me, sweet face of death....And grasp my hand as I take my last breath.... I am ready gentle death, to walk...

  Death has its clock. It will not be rushed or pleaded with, but when it comes, you cannot escape its grasp. This piece was done nicely.

  We seek the same end but I choose Dylan Thomas’ “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” way of getting there. Good write 🌼
