I cry

Seems we are all fighting that fight "realize" Just a suggestion and nothing more what if you were to say the Death of life and at the end I cry , I fight and I mourn just a thought Chrys

I'll join ya and we'll start a revolution for evolution make her beautiful once more. Don't cry no more, fight! Where to start? I'm thinking good old fasioned violence for the cocks :) Like blowing up buildings ! I have nothing to lose, you? The likes of Michael as man on earth. For earth ! Mark

from my perspective, when a man cries, it's axiomatic he (including you, of course) has reason enough. And that even if the reason's not explained ... or understood---either by himself or by others. Thanx, Chuck

Well Weirdelf my week was another lost week yes i love this poem and like you i lost my brand new bike downtown i woke up still alive and full of knocks and bumps lost some I.D. also but kept the money and bike lock strange apparations of thought as for corporate affairs i worked once for the union a good one and a big company now called ACEON a big construction do that was once known as Cliffside here in Ontario Canada i worked for a lesser unit of them at that time but the bosses didnt care and the foreman was a rude pig and they dumped me more or less red necks but i had fun with my fellows i made freinds with and i have lost wallets too and probably glasses if i had any but so i relate as of late i am going back to meetings now and trying to be good too much to lose from what i have all been given by nice helping people well i care i hear you and i like this poem straight from the heart take care my freind here i can hear new birds singing as the grass emerges and soon flowers will rise and bloom and the lake will be free of ice and alive again as we are too Your brother with love O

True male emotions. Makes me sad that this world can treat people this way with out any compassion. The biggest company in out little town is being shut down all over the US because a huge company don't like them. No thought of those working there. These are critical times hard to deal with. You have captured the plight of many perfectly. I can see the realization that love resides with the few and lost to the many. I agree the ending could flow a little better. From beginning to end the images flow perfectly. Great no changes I feel is needed Smiles:) Barbara

Liberty lost to governments Corporations putting us down, – rubber stamping The likes of me & you Throwing Breadcrumbs For the lucky Few, Jess Sad times we live in! Peter

Corporate cocks and uncaring gods they all screw us in the end what's one to do? live your life and relish in the ironies when those cocks get lopped off by other knives wielded by other cocks, bigger than them and pointed at them ...and not you. Unfortunately, that's all there is to do. (oh and write more poems, damn it man, write more poems!!!)

I have a suggestion. To cut down on the repitition, you could say: I cry and I scream and I howl and I sob Losing all three of those items are major. I can relate to all of it. Like the poem. Always, Cat

you have a new fan right here. Niki

on another note I once read a comment where somebody said they were pushing 5,000 points and I thought - how can that be? But then I think that was the only person ever having read the entire stream. So I decided to land here far from perfect but always giving it a good go. Mark

That is a very sad poem! I like the free style using a few short lines to draw the reader into the poem and then you keep their attention throughout. Sorry ole fellow about the loss of the job---if they paid you for your poetic talent you would be a millionare. In the simplist words you haved conveyed great beauty in our language. Drachm

Smiles:) Barbara Reading this again it just gets better. Agree with Drachm your poem are great, I always look forward to reading them.

Smiles:) Barbara Barbara is a special name so many Barbara's Can't wait to read it.

..I really felt the loss of hope, as you cried. It matters not, "why", or "how hard"; what I felt was, that you cried so uncontrollably, at all. I felt this, because I've been there. In fact, I'm still wiping away the tears. Who says that we cry, alone? I think, NOT. Waiting for a bed, doc.

you are always searching for the reason you cry instead of just accepting the fact that perhaps you need to do so. Is it society that tells you to do this, or some dark inclination that voices its opinion with whispers in your ear of weakness and frailty. I prefer a man who cries without reason or fear. It shows far more strength than those who hide behind either as an excuse for tears. Best, Ronda

Can relate to crying when i get frustrated full of fear and feeling helpless i stop and let it out rather then shut down smash it down and cover it up with my old addictions not first without sparks though but its not the old ways i do now poem is beautiful large companies come and sweep up everything devouring competition like Star Treks "Borgs" (not a big fiction fan but loved those shows!!!!) Just heard up here in Oshawa Canada that GM is shutting down the truck plant A thousand workers out of work and in Mexico a plant there and two in the States so yes its natural and fair to have something that large to even think about going up against
