There's something profoundly sensual about this, as though symbols and poetic rhymes were dancing with metaphors in an intimate choreography—beautifully, freely, almost seductively.

Thanks for the lovely comment Jeanne I was trying to channel the mood, sounds like maybe I got somewhere near it 💛🙏

Oh the futility! Beautifully expressed, Sea:

that joe in the hole, for sure, ain’t no enemy of mine.

Could be my twin save for the colour of his skin

Same soft prayers we’ll be uttering

god spare me this night.

The older I get the more I realize war (and especially mechanized war) is perhaps the most despicable thing about humanity. There is a lot about us to love, but damn the fighting.

Beautiful writing, as always 💜

You’re right despicable is probably a fair comment, I’ll write a love song next up to celebrate the best of us. Thanks Giles🙏😊
