When you spoke of swing,
I thought of starving.
When you spoke of better living,
I thought of living better.

It is difficult for me to make an opinion on such a grafic depiction of brutal living and the sound of corruption. It is even sadder that because of one's station that they be trapped in such an inhospitable situation when one's burns with the need to make a better life and through no fault of there own it alludes them.. iip
the time when love comes and the pain it leaves behind,i was ready for the natural wound my heart was going to conceive
And remember, one day or the other; We'd come out as a tremor, To breathe the ether; To reach heights more than yours; And to rejuvenate a better life Though we struggle, Expecting a probability to arise. your writing is fresh and its nice to read what you do.... congratulations.
Thios poem is a poem for the positive poeple only to take some clue out.
may i ask what this is about? i really like it and for me it is about somethings i have recently been thinking but I would like to know what YOU wrote it about
This is deep and certainly well written in many ways, keep this up!
This is really good! It's very well written, it's very detailed with emotion, and a very nice poem. Good work!
I can't say I 'enjoyed' reading this poem. WHY? I relate vividly to its expressed anguish. And the details of its emotion. I connect to the depth of it. Not with a wish to revisit its pain. But...to glorify in its hope that those who do experience the pits of sorrow envision a tomorrow the Sun beams down a reversal of fortunes for those enforced to accept such 'class' divisions.
That is a very moving poem I hope you continue to create such magnificent poem.
Hi - I enjoyed this poem.I think I will need to read it several times to ascertain its full meaning. One or two points...I hope you don't mind.I'm not sure I understand the first line...'when you spoke of swing'. Also....'enthralls you' - 'enthral' would be more accurate in this context. 'at Earth' - could that be 'on earth'? . 'deep down the ground' - 'deep in the ground' or 'deep under the ground' may be more suitable. I felt 'to come up' was a little clumsy(if I may say so) .I thought 'to arise' might sound better. But these are just opinions.Please feel free to read any of mine and give feedback. It is a powerful piece that made me reflect on my own situation(in a good way) .
A powerful poem about misperception, inequality, humility and exaltation. The destructive silence of inaction/ omission indeed. Well balanced, well done
Reflectional and very interesting to read... Nice.
A story to be told, you have told it in a powerful way, With great emotion, a fantastic poem.
A nice but sad poem speaking to the cultural boundaries, idiotic greed and injustice that thrives under what is called Capitalism. I wish you much luck in all your future endeavors. I've written several poems dealing with the modern day political injustice. Feel free to read any of my poetry such as Machiavellian Schemers. Write On!
very nice poem.Simple but bearing a message against the social injustice.
Ok, fine poem, thanks.
