Great writing.
I/'/m made aware of this when I go back into the archives.
The last line strikes me odd. I guess I liked the message so much I didn/'/t want any deviation from it. Just me. Nothing wrong . Great stuff here :) |

REALITY ABOUNDS WITHIN THE EYE OF THE IMAGINATION...An interesting truth is spoken here. Reality can be defined as being what each of us perceives it to be. We all look at a rose, but we all see it differently. Which of us is seeing reality? ---
Your finale sums it up in your closing line: ones truth is another s fabrication. Or said another way: ones fabrication is anothers truth.

Quite a cool piece. I/'/m digging your exploration of reality. Read some Schopenhauer. YT clip best for explanation. You/'/re treading in his land and like myself, i feel you will learn from his brilliant mind. I know I have.
Pursue this line of thought...please. I/'/ll look for your shares.

You have a unique rhyme scheme here that only adds to the appeal of your wise words. As poets we tend to see beauty in simple things that others pass by never even noticing.
A truly beautiful write.
Very well done
Oh barkeep!! You know the drill!

beautifully written,
but I must abut this
and while I think perhaps
as a poet, some people have
a certain notable condition
such as obsessive - compulsive personality
disorder, where they internalize, or possibly
externalize words, and their meaning.
By the lake, she was, internally taking
within herself, a goal, a higher goal
since she knew she was gifted and smart,
she took in the rules, unlike most
would ever think too much about.
But at the same time I do think there
is a universal grammar, yet, it is hard
to tease out, what a gifted person internalizes.
They would never agree. No it/'/s not wrong or right,
But that it is a difficulty, no matter how smart
a person truly is, no matter how gifted
their potential might seem.
And how I wish it would be easy
if the sky was golden upon the open road
for some, and the hope that keeps their dream
alive.
but still I love your poem.
As it/'/s easy for me to remember.
Peace! |

Top notch thinking, and a really lovely observation of the import of creation on others. your poem is both the vehicle and example of that sentiment. Well done.

Words of a wisdom and teeth

Directed will dimentional speech,
