Man In The Sand Comments

Nice poem. Liked the flow. A tragic lesson about life. “Pure suffering, what hatred brings, ” agree with the statement.

This poem has a nice cadence. Its title, Man in the Sand, is memorable in its own right, and it also caused me to want to read the poem in the first place. It was nice of you to give this subject attention by way of your poem so that the rest of us can reflect on it. Thank you.

Not a drop of rainwater or a mere hunting knife to fight for survival to end civil strife I am thinking you are speaking to the larger injustice of crimes committed against a populace in general using this man's family as an example. Will a mere hunting knife end civil strife? Interesting line thought.

Great poem from a young man. So well written. Wish you the best.

this is amazing..the way you describe the way people are mad to take revenge.liked it.

very very fine one, thanks, Man of sand may you now rest in peace, I like it O William Blake Beckett. I invite you to read my poems and comment.

While taking revenge we can sometimes lose our footing or waste our lives.

Nice poem written from deep thought. The poem brings to fore vividly the consequences of war. Thanks for sharing

Quite mature n strong hand...the narrative, the images, the rhyming effect n the lexical choice , , , everything is carefully managed...your confidence about this poem is right...

could be homeless man wandering the desert...casualty of war

In my vision I can clearly see, a poet has appeared to reign the kingdom of poetry.Who's in this selfish world of hedonism thinks like this? Amazing thought!
