Were all delicate, fragile, breakable art; Spending half of our life in the dark;
Lifes a short little trip and there are no spare parts.

We arent the same in actions, or deeds; but identical in the most basic of needs.
This garden of children surrounded by weeds.

Were in this together, like it or not. Handle with care; were all that weve got.

Hi there, Poetess! I see a linear line of thought in this poem from the poem (name escapes me) I submitted two days ago. But, that/'/s just because I/'/m an ego-centrist narcissist....OR, it really IS all about me! (LOL..I swear I/'/m kidding).

As is always the case in your poems, you strike to the core of your chosen concept, draping it in such a way the lesson is absorbed painlessly as your rhyme schemes and word choices are so soothing we don/'/t know a pill has been swallowed until after the fact.

Well done!

Invierno

Nicely written.
Correct, we are so much alike. And yet “fragile” each in our own unique ways...

we are, in all the unmentionable extremes,
and, just as much as in the more commonly understood stance, so very much similar,
than apart, or distractions,
never to be conferred to as some
collectivism to be ruled by the few
everybody these days gets it wrong
this thing they call, American (really in the U.S.)
exceptionalism. It isn/'/t because you were born
someplace or look a certain way. The whole
idea was that any person could someday
achieve something special through hard work.
Which by the way was almost impossible back
in the old world. The old world,
The world when the U.S. Constitution discounted
women and the native people and anyone dark
skinned or those indentured slaves,
the rest of us, the rest of us,
the rest of us.

"the infinitesimals/'/, Tolstoy referred to in his novel,
"War and Peace"...
We are the consequences ---
the hopeful, the dire outcomes.
We are not colonizers / it was never
our purpose in life,
I always thought this way
I always wished I could say,
now that I know.

Peace!
