We're all just filling in: We're all just filling in space.  I think a lot of my writing is throwaway and then someone else reads it and finds something in it.  I wrtie something I'm really proud of and really love and it doesn't resonate with anyone.  I have no problem with filler.  I took up space because I was there.

Oh, I thought it was just: Oh, I thought it was just someone that saw me take my shirt off.  It would be a good name for a punk band though.

Wow, I'm flattered.  That's: Wow, I'm flattered.  That's an awful lot of thought on a 32 syllable poem.  I try to avoid collective mind even if it is ineviable.  Of course, we do have to realize that we are part of a larger world community and it makes sense for us to eventually learn to live and work together.

Gritty and real for sure. It: Gritty and real for sure. It all turns round into a perfect excuse for the primal thought response and vernacular description under the gentlemanly guise of intellectual discourse. I've missed you so much, I've also been away so much. Sad news another great gone... are you still here?

That's quite the feeling: That's quite the feeling about most of my writes: just stuffing to fill out the gaps in the otherwise awkward writing silences.

You've "created" the black dot on the blank canvas.: Yours is more amusing, though. And won't insanely go for a massive sum of money (sorry).

Poetry that carries some: Poetry that carries some thematic and emotional connection to many of the best works of the music band Staind, and also some shades of U2's With or Without you. Yet, it feels so deeply personal that it is owned by you and your muse, alone, and likewise there are some expressions here that seem to be undeniably and deeply all your own: "Yes, the memories are faded. Some smiles yesteryear became banned yesterday."   Those two lines, being my favorite.

I would offer this expansion: I would offer this expansion on your take: Battles that exist in a certain collective mind. That's the tribal element, wouldn't you agree? The need to feed, also, the desire to be connected, how ever that connection comes - even to the extend, in some instances, of a shared bloodlust. I think this is, in no small part, why it's easy to observe one political faction rail against a certain behavior by their perceived opponent, till "their side" does/supports it. If the desire to win to feed a certain emptiness was based on individual desires, it seems to me that such sudden hypocritical shifts would be far less frequent, to perhaps very rare.   Anyhow, in times of great disconnection, this pathos should grow (which I believe we witness today across our society in many different forms and clusters).

People are motivated by: People are motivated by desires to win battles that exist only in their own mind.  They always want more because they fill themselves up with a lot of food that lacks substance.
