I’ve been feeling this much myself of late. There’s a sense of division, of isolation, being forced upon us daily. The atrocities come so fast and so hard we can barely catch a breath before the next hits. We have this vast universe available to us in the internet. And it’s that very universe that’s locking us away from each other – ironic, that. It takes conscious movement to stay connected with each other and our humanity. But it’s taking a toll. I love that you repeat that verse of needing to just go home. Enough is enough, we’re tired. Brilliant write, my friend

  Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I knew I wasn’t alone in feeling and seeing this happening around us. It is faster than most of us can catch our breath. The internet is a rabbit hole, to much time there tends to rot the mind. It can’t be one’s only means of existence, we also need human connection and more than that we need to stay attached to life outside being online. I thought it was important to repeat as well. It may end up on the album. Appreciate you.

  Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Brenda. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It’s a vicious cycle of sorts, people are being driven to self-medicating because they can’t make it in this world. The system is rigged against everyone but the corporations and the billionaires. I fear it as well, not knowing how far some are willing to go. So sorry about your son my friend. The younger generation has it rough out there in this unforgiving world. Poverty and mental health seem to never get the attention they require. Appreciate you.

Well, this being the first write of the year, you started out with a mic drop moment. We all must go home eventually, but before then, when are we going to come together and help each other? We do stay separated, and those who try to connect get accused of having a hidden agenda when all they want is connection. A sense that they are not alone. This is so good cuz.

  Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I thought I’d try to set the bar high. lol. I agree with you 100 % cuz, a lot of good people become jaded over time, it’s important that they know that they’re not alone. We need to learn to love one another, so many wiser men and women than I have said that in the past, but like all history it seems we keep making the same mistakes. Not all of us of course are so easily fooled, that’s why hope is alive and those who still believe are never truly alone. Appreciate you, cuz.

This speaks of the poor, the homeless, to me. Getting them help is like jumping through hoops. The wealthy stay rich and ignore them. Those in power are absent. The government make promises, and forget them. Life in the real world is a gauntlet to be navigated. And so it goes….

  Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It is a vicious cycle indeed. Hoops that are tangled in a ton of red tape. They do make empty promises to get elected, then throw us overboard once they take office. It is a gauntlet for sure. Appreciate you.

There’s a raw, unflinching pulse here—I can feel the ache in each line, the weight of life bending the soul. The repetition of that fatigue hits hard, making the reader live every step of the weariness and isolation. Very powerful.

This strikes us all to the core, unfortunately. it’s like we are skirting the line of endtimes. Every day I check to see if the next big war has broken out. When it does, America is in for a rude awakening. Obviously, the biggest complaint will be the even higher costs of living, and not the loss of life. Values are askew.
Your write is a keen testament to this all. We the people will be pawns, still.
Excellent visionary write, Damian.

  Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mark. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I just write how I see it actually, like observing the moves on a chessboard. It’s not a good time to be starting wars, not that anytime is good. If you ever watched wrestling you’ll know what I mean. We turned heel. Plain and simple. Appreciate you.

I love how the poem tiptoes around the edges of definition and weighs in with description. This is perfectly executed! Apparently that button is everything
