lyrycsyntyme commented on: Three Trillion by owlcrkbrg 2 years 19 weeks* ago* Did you know that the: Did you know that the majority of birds don't even nest in trees? For example, the Belted Kingfisher digs a tunnel in the ground (I just learned that one yesterday, having a Belted Kingfisher visiting the pond by my cabin). Red-winged Blackbirds tend to nest in cattails. Warblers and Sparrows generally nest in bushes and shrubs. Some birds do prefer human advancement, though. Starlings have nested in the roofing of my chicken coop, and in a gap within the roof of a garage at my mom's. When I lived in the city, starlings thrived for this reason. Also, there is a type of martin in France that is famous for building it's nest on the wall of houses that have existed since the middle ages. A friend of mine moved to France and into one of these ancient towns, and they come and nest on all of the houses each year. Adaptability is amazing. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Sacred Crone by patriciajj 2 years 19 weeks* ago* "Tattered hymnal" and the dog: "Tattered hymnal" and the dog eared ones as well. These are a very familiar and even intimate image, the scratched and smoothened wooden pews that hold us during weekly services. If they could tell their stories. We all had that "decomposing teacher" and the musty, dusty feel of convent education. Brings back memories. Thanks for sharing./Rik. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: ..... All Wounds by Wordman 2 years 19 weeks* ago* Second stanza was the bomb!: Second stanza was the bomb! Tears that know their path too well. The third clues me into a non-morning personality and the day drags on until the night covers the sadness again with its darkness. The feel of this poem is palpable and strong. Thanks for sharing.

lyrycsyntyme commented on: Yesterday's Master by lyrycsyntyme 2 years 19 weeks* ago* Thank you very much. And amen: Thank you very much. And amen to your sentiments. Experience and information spur our existential photosynthesis. [ go to comment ]

crypticbard commented on: The way you move by osiriss- 2 years 19 weeks* ago* Tht is the way of it, isn't: Tht is the way of it, isn't it... 'getting into each other's skin,' some more - so much more, than others. Thank you for sharing. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Cannibalism (We Eat) by lyrycsyntyme 2 years 19 weeks* ago* This just brought to mind how: This just brought to mind how the process of poetry can also be seen in cannibalistic terms, for that matter, art and all creative process. Perhaps as far as to say that the arts is a culture's way of devouring itself and still proceed in its line of issue and succession. Perhaps, this line thinking goes ahead of itself. Thanks for sharing. /Rik. [ go to comment ]
lyrycsyntyme commented on: Life Voyage by allets 2 years 19 weeks* ago* But once received in port,: But once received in port, where are we unpacked and shipped off to? A port, afterall, being just a door - where do the tracks or the interstate go on to? [ go to comment ]

allets commented on: What I Learned This Decade by allets 2 years 19 weeks* ago* The Game The Rules: . Remember the meaning of America -- now that is the world meaning. Pick a reason, any reason. Nations used to help nations. usa was not suppose to help Ukraine - Covid outlays were supposed to stop ultruistic money but it did not. NATO nations rallied must keep made for war manufacturers in billions because after 2 decades they have declare themselves national institutions. . Remember money is free speech. Congress loved that one coupled with non-disclosure of who contributed free speech - producing a bouncing baby fascist state. Some patriot whi will read the Constitution and don a cape and restore the Republic (we are not a democracy). We embrace democraticesque principles. That may require crashing the dollar. . Fed's Mr. Powell, to raise interest rate .5 in June and again in July. Addendum to action: inflation will be with us for a while (@2 more years). I find all of this very stimulating. :D . ~A~.

tula commented on: ambiguous summer breeze by tula 2 years 19 weeks* ago* Much appreciated..: It is much appreciated, overwhelmingly so. I understand also what you mean (by making a difference). It is just something that I try to delve into (informal studies on these tagged/related subjects) while in a global city and observing these subtle nuances..which, if I may be given a sudden chance, I might immediately reflect upon or give insights to it (i.e., such observations and whatnot). Good night (and I am so overwhelmed by just chancing upon so many of the interwoven words around here (it is also breathtaking, at some point, which sometimes make me just tacitly appreciate them; for truth be told: I am wordless, at least, and in awe). (G'night.) [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: Words Like Smoke and Sand by patriciajj 2 years 19 weeks* ago* The sound like that of wind: The sound like that of wind or pouring sand in the parting of pins has given more than a decent spritz of poetic regret. What I love is that regret becomes a growing and learning experience rather than a mere negative emotion that has to be rid off or left behind or buried. Thanks for sharing. [ go to comment ]
