“Masks conceal the cruelest intentions
Orchestrated fear designed to control”
Wow! This is a powerful statement that holds much truth! You just have to listen carefully to politicians. They tell you everything they intent to do, hidden between distracting words.
Brilliant work, Damian!

Not only true enough but my word yours here look so pretty sitting on their very own page .. Neville

Fantastic, Damian!

Phenomenal piece Damian. Makes ya think. Powerful write my friend.

Okay, Prophet, you did it again. They only wear the mask long enough to lull the sheep. The wolves are out in force now, no masks. And you nailed this one like a jackhammer of Truth. I really wish you weren’t so deadly accurate…but here we are. That vault of yours must be packed with treasure, my friend

Tight, relentless lines. This feels like a pressure chamber where thought turns toxic and power hides behind masks. I like how the poem doesn’t over-explain—just lets the spiral speak for itself. Dark, current, and uncomfortably true.

Nice! Tightly done yet with a bullseye message. The rhymes are perfect, too. Excellent write Damian.

You were ahead of your time, Damian. This applies today as if it was written yesterday. Great poem!

Powerfully penned, Brenda. It’s amazing how the body reacts when our minds are being overwhelmed. Living with lasting scars isn’t always easy my friend. Very heartfelt write my friend. Thanks for sharing. Appreciate you.

Damian

I can feel this one my friend. Strong write with all the colors and detail you’re so amazing at. Great piece Brenda.xo

Passionately penned, Brenda. Amazing write my friend. The verdict is in…this one is steamy. Appreciate you.

Damian

A sexy piece here my friend. Steamy and revealing. Great!

Passionately penned, Brenda. Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Excellent piece Brenda! Sexy, smart and you! xo

Fantastic!

yes, Willow, I will walk with you and everyone here wherever the trail may go. Incredible, inspiring write, and much needed read on this first day of the poetic year!

with heartfelt thanks

hello beautiful Willow this is very uplifting the current climate of fear is getting to me I fear a lot…this put my mind at peace❤️

This is such a beautiful song. Very powerful and you are absolutely right, we need community. Thank you for this.

Brilliantly penned, Willow. Now that’s a bonfire! Excellent lyrics with an amazing musical arrangement. Really liked the drums in this my friend. That third stanza worked as a bridge, I really loved the build to that moment, the bridge brought it all home. It was also the heaviest part of the song with the drums working like exclamation points to your words. When my brother was a drummer in a certain band, I often referred to him as: “The Human Exclamation Point.” Drummers help put emphasis on lyrics in my opinion. Nicely done per usual. Appreciate you.

Damian

This feels like walking alongside the poem itself—hand in hand through both shadow and light. I love how it turns struggle into hope, and hope into a quiet, unshakable victory.

Yes I will walk together with you and in hand, dear Willow, and burn yesterday’s pain to substitute it with new hope which you inspire so brilliantly with this masterpiece!

The unifying spirit of this song reaches beyond the soul. Very beautiful.

Much respect

Awwwwwwww nice!
This is like sugar for day old coffee, making it tolerable. Like a rare seashell after the bombardment of the ocean’s waves.
Thank you for this treasure of a poem. It’s a gem.

This is not only poetry but something else beside .. I could probably both read and listen to it pretty much round the clock .. Neville 😎💛⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🌻👍
