You chewed gum and made a statement all at once. Good Job.

It feels that the plant is not being consulted when decisions about it are made.
Much like little children taken away from their big trees (parents) and transplanted which makes them
really scared, like maybe they won’t ever see family again.
Little plants among giant trees…and they feel so intimidated and lost.

Yes it was what it is intended. In fact I speak about emotions and thoughts here. How much of them go hidden because it is too much for other humans to observe them.

It works. It is also a good poem because other interpretations can be derived from it.
Poetry is best when it is universal…and can appeal to each reader in some effective way.-

It does sound like a town that has been forgotten. You described it well, so sad.

Yes, as sad as it is there was plenty of time to improve things, but…. Thanks Fia.

I lived there for 17 years. But had to move, the police moved out and glitches moved in. They set up tents and overtook the place.

I don’t know whether to laugh or sigh at your comment. It was such a great place at one time. Let’s hope this site is a new and better beginning for most of us from Cafe Town. 🙂 Thanks J.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It’s going, though it took a while to get my “Logic Pro” software. Which allows me to mix better and I can even master my music with it. But, I got a song mapped out structurally, I have lyrics for everything but the bridge. Which I just came up with that bridge tonight. Gotta record vocals, and backing vocals next. Hopefully, I’ll be letting you hear it soon. I miss you too, my friend. You’ve been penning some excellent work my friend. Thanks for your continued support, it means a lot to me. Appreciate you.

I get the sense of internal conflict, and the rhythm and urgency make it clear these are lyrics meant to be performed.
The energy builds perfectly toward the chorus: “Face to face with destiny…” I especially like the line “Loyal to the art of betrayal” – it’s a great, concise piece of wordplay.
