The Wall Comments

Yes, hermits meditating in secluded place can only have room for the likes of those who will join the hermit.. Behind closed walls, sometimes, self-actualisation happens.. On a personal note, I can recognise with this poem.. I had spent a lot of time of my life (I know I am just 24, but at times I feel way older) just not being able to 'fit in' the usual hullaballo of life.. And then I came here and met so many wonderful people.. Strangely, the ones with whom I interract the most with, or those who has almost given me 'patronage' with their words, company, opinions, and critiques have been the elder lot.. Many of them are like the 'hermit' you talk about in this poem.. Very few people are 'graced' by them.. And I feel very proud to be given the opportunity to talk with them.. Thank you for sharing Barry.. Your poems are really the ones that of a deep thinker.. Thanks.
