Fia, that cover by Disturbed, is haunting and so appropriate for when I wrote this poem. And while today (2026), there is a political awakening to the horrors perpetrated in our name, and people are actively protesting in the streets again, the majority still hold tightly to this system, to this idea that, while flawed, America is still “good”. But America has never been ‘good” or great. America has always built itself up on the blood and bones of people here and around the world. And until people recognize this and act to get rid of this system, this song, “The Sounds of Silence” will remain powerful.
Thank you Fia, for your comment.

Honestly, if I think too hard about what’s happening today, the cruelty being doled out with such casual disregard for humanity, I crack a little inside. The corruption at the top doesn’t upset me as much as the blind hatred and full support the zombies give it. Hatred will be our unmaking and pain is, unfortunately, humanity’s common denominator. This is such a powerful piece and there’s so much going on in my mind now that I’m going to leave it at that and sit down.

Willow, it is not an easy thing, to think about the horrors and pain of the world today. It’s a sickness that is growing, and keep growing, unless we dig deeper into our humanity, our humaneness, and stop it. Willow, let me offer you my hand to help you up, to point you towards those who are refusing through nonviolent protest and resistance. There is still hope for humanity.
Thank you Willow, I am glad for your visit and comment. -Curt

Chère F.,
A subtle prayer
A declaration of love
Is all that I am
Thinking of….You are a class of/on your own (what do I know of your language?)
And this question answer format is a beautiful find.
Needless to say I love it to bits.
Warm regards, Gus -
This reminds me of classic poetry from the early 1900’s. It has that feel and language. Nice one,, Fia.

This is such a sigh-worthy piece. I think most of us embark on that journey with these hopes. For some, it lasts. For others…not so much. I love the fierce optimism in this one

Fia, this is a jubilant celebration of love that you paint with lyrical wonder. I enjoyed this so much my heart sang as I read. You really made me so happy reading this tonight. I am rejoicing through the magic of your poetic and loving poem of an eternal flame that cannot be extinguished.
John

I like how you put in there I am not sure you meant to tell me because sometimes things slip and they were never meant to be said out loud. Lovely
