I read everything in this channel. Thanks for your kind words. I'm sorry, but I don't think I commented on your profile.

[VideoPoetryAlbum]

Glad to add as favourite! Thank you.

[nickharvey7]

I believe poetry should be based on truth and I am sure there is some truth in this poetry!! But maybe we all see our own truth somehow.

[Moffdaddy]

Beautiful at most.... my reply is: ...A few strokes of the mind and streets appear, cars gently bumping into people smiling faces stabbing each other men talking about committing flawless murder flowers breaking thru the pavement then scorched by the sun modest girls getting free unlimited ice-cream for a favour theyre down on their knees for all to see shops, a carwash and churches all that meets the eye... etc etc

[anmpir]

This poet or rather this genious is an expert on social affairs. He lived long on this planet before he wrote this poem.
