This game is the way in which slaughter becomes an end in itself.

Time will come back very soon; all will be slaughter of themselves!
exactly wrote- We seek escape from reality, we undermine our self-esteem. Maybe we are unable to see them, but we need to talk about this. And maybe they do not trust us when we tell them to come to us if they need to talk..../// yeah; right you are
A work of world class proportion. It reads better every time I am honored to read it!
This poem and others written by you, show that you are to poetry what wine is to song.
an intriguing poem of what might be? maybe we are not meant to see? so that the illusion of free will would still exist..
When the reason for the law ceases, the law itself ceases. This is something one must think about. You have said it.
Wonder when can we humans (all) get to that reality and realization. May be sure we left the natural course of life Long ago and fell in this Social thing and many of us have to go thru the guilt.. may be not for doing any wrong act.. but just for being living in this Guilt world! We seek escape from reality, we undermine our self-esteem. Maybe we are unable to see them, but we need to talk about this... a Real thought provoking Verse Mariata! Loved the Poem. Thank you for sharing! respects! 10+++!
A profound write with few good metaphors. This poem deserves the full marks 10. Thanks for inviting.
Very powerful drop. There is nothing in act if mind feels guilty. Loved this thought provoking write.10+++
I am pleased to have found such strong, thoughtful writing on Poem Hunter. You have made the hunt worthwhile!
Hi Marieta, The act is not guilty unless the mind is also guilty. That is what the law and norms say. But we judge others by their acts. That is the paradox. You have brought out the paradoxes/enigma very effectively, by interjecting the narrative with Latin. But your Latin is Greek to me. Sorry about that! Once all of them have won a very special princess prize, the game is over.... and they will never buy another one.....- these line remind me of the story of Mahabharat, the great Indian epic: Prince Arjun, the middle one of the Pandavas got a gift- Princess Draupadhi. Their mother, Queen Kunti ordains that the gift should be shared by all of them. So Draupadhi became wife of all the five princes.: : : : That is, the game is not over. It just takes off from this point. And Nothing is heavy to those who have wings- fantastic line. Speaks volumes on the poetic imagination. Even the burden of one's grief becomes light, when one boards the 'flight of imagination', Great work. Enjoyed reading. Thank you for sharing. Continue writing and sharing. But Latin! ! ! 100 minus all the Latin...
Wow! ! ! Is this ever Deep! AND Very Powerful! Excellent Write! ! !
Are we inherantly good or evil? The Darkness seeks to manipulate us into its service is a very good line. Thanks for the poem.
Sed ipse Spiritus postulat pro nobis, gemitibus inenarrabilibus. But the same Spirit intercedes incessantly for us, with inexpressible groans.
