    Big Red Button

    Come closer,listen.I need you to hear this.The world is at war.I know it is so,because truth was the first to fall.Fact has become fiction,fiction turned to fact.Seeing is no longer believing,and truth no longer matters.Everything is fake,everything a conspiracy,everything...

    I wonder

    I wonder what will happen when the fight leaves me When the desire to do what's right  to push forward in the face of all the naysayers   I wonder how I feel like when the last flicker of the spark illuminates...

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. Excellent write my friend, I’ve always been a fan of your musings. This one does not disappoint. Nicely done. Appreciate you, cuz.

      Damian

    • Thank you for sharing your musings with us!
      Life comes without a safety net. To think that we have control is an illusion. But everyone of us has a reliable inner compass knowing what’s right or wrong and guiding us. It’s called intuition, and we can trust it. It’s your tour guide while climbing mountains. It won’t lead you astray.

    • The first line is amazing, gripping. The rest of the poem builds well. I’m a minimalist. The first line can hold its own.
      Regards James

    • Chère F.,
      I don’t wonder/care why your.work resonates so deep with me; I am happy that it does.
      This is another one to be grateful for.

      I am sure you are familiar with the: use it or lose it thing?
      It’s not applicable for muscles alone! I truly believe that.
      My wish for you is to use it a lot!
      Warm greetings, Gus

    • A though provoking piece! Well done, Fia! “)

    • dont think about … keep fighting

    • The world needs fighters who will stand for things that are right. Of course you get tired, but if the spirit is strong, the strength will come.

    • hello dearest ME I myself don’t know where my poems come from this a great glance into your soul ❤️

      • I believe my poems are a part of me. They come from my subconscious. 🙂
        Thank you my friend for reading and support! Highly apprecited! <3

    • Thank you, Damian! Highly appreciated “)

    • This is a hell of a write, my friend — very powerful; but I see a typo, I think, when you wrote, “In a battle of write and earse” when I believe that last word should be “erase,” yes?

      Also, you may not be aware of the big LISTEN button that now lives on this page and no doubt many more of yours as well as many others who labour but are not aware of our unwanted AI reader who has hitch-hiked on the work of everyone who has not attached the #excludetx tag to their work.

      • Thank you brother for reading and the comment. Also for both the correction and exclude tag. I appreciate it! “)

    • This is quite mind-blowing.

      I admire the punchy and reflective lines through each stanza.

      I can sense this is a personal piece, it describes an emotional journey taking place.

      It is enlightening and tragic at the same time.

      A pleasure to take in. x

    • Dude…This is a kick ass piece. Your writings always intrigue me.

    • That carries a stark rhythm, the triple negation (“no man shall endure nor beast”) gives it a biblical, almost covenantal tone. The phrase “monstrous loneliness” works well because it personifies isolation as something with appetite and form. Appreciate you.

    • A great mystery unfolds. The nature of the muse.
      Regards James
