Poets write sometimes in order to avoid Last Rites

BIG
LIKE

Read twice
Hit me different second time around as the bartender was calling for last round ..

Like PoetSpeak, I read this one twice. It has the feeling of a bell rolling in the mist. That question at the end…if you get an answer, I would like in on the knowledge

Powerfully penned, Cipher. This is a deep write my friend, lots of layers. Appreciate you.

‘Light lies
in
bright
eyes. Captured in forward and backward enrapture. The light
of
life. The seeming meaning
in the
dreaming. ‘
A core of words needing a home, thoughts laid, meanings personal yet to share. Takes hold on the second read.

Right from the X posts to the Headlines. Radical right meets radical left – everyone in between pays the price! I’m going to end here but I’m coming back with a link to one I wrote.

Feel The Noise

Damian great write but the buffoons that run the world aren’t listening.
Too busy making money by any means possible.
Lies have become the truth and truth lies.
Orwell saw it coming.

It doesn’t surprise me that rich people try to screw over the poor. What surprises me is how many people are so happy to get screwed while complaining that they have hard lives. They want war. They want blood because some people disagree or just tell them reality. It’s wild.

Great ink

When there’s so words of my own to describe something I go back to the Master

That’s happening a lot lately …

I believe this one will only continue to become more relevant as long as they wealthy hold the keys to freedom. Unfortunately. An reverse Robin Hood situation we got going on. I swe things happening & quietly write down my suspicion on their next crime. I wish I wasn’t right so often. And you…prophet. I hope it’s not too late & the scales can still be tipped, my friend

Superb work.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Interesting thought. you mean he/she will fade into obscurity if you do not think of it.

Powerfully penned, Keith. A write with lots of layers, you’re Captain Hook my friend. I mean that in a good way. Appreciate you.

Damian

Appreciate the feedback. Thanks Mary.

Once again, a great and thought provoking writing, my friend! I agree absolutely that it is a waste of time to worship revengeful and judgmental God. It only supports the authorities in power who benefit from the fear and insecurity of the masses.
Personally, I believe that there is an immeasurable and intelligent energy behind of all of creation which doesn’t care about so called sins or acts of veneration. As we are born with a thinking mind, we are challenged to decide whether to create or to destroy.
A powerful piece,hats off!

Well, that was an event, and I think you still did not pass that bulb since you still light up my friend. Enjoyed this piece. Oh, I do not like tomatoed based baked beans either. lol

I enjoyed this from beginning to end. I’d say your grandmother is still keeping an eye on you, my friend. She must know something…

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It hit me that way, while I was writing it. It was a very authentic moment. Appreciate you.

Some of the best writing you have ever shared with us. Sensational and held my interest. Nice work Damian.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, Damian. I love the simplistic history that makes us all humans deep down, no matter if we try to hide it.
I have very vivid memories of one of my grannies. She was a tiny firecracker. Snap a chicken’s neck and yet tend to our little boo-boos with TLC with the same hand.
Burger Chef rocked!
Wonderfully vivid write, it kept me enthralled.
