The poem has a dashed-off narrative feel to it, so it's not up to your usual poetic standard but I understand, given the subject matter.
Is that typical animal control behaviour in the US, to shoot the animal dead because it might be vicious?

Re: Nabal Means Fool (in Searching for Kadesh collection)
You should read the wonderful book God Knows , which tells the novelized first-person story of David as written by the bawdy and irreverent pen of one of the true giants of literature, Joseph Heller. The poem was interestingly different and I enjoyed the read as a creative piece although I had the i...

Re: She loved...
I enjoyed the poem. It was like being a voyeur of her feminine landscape. Strong writing throughout and i particularly appreciated the elevated phraseology in the final S, although it could use a little tightening in a couple of places. Good stuff, Dave.

Re: Castle/Warehouses In The Sky
Here's a helpful vid from the source I mentioned. It's aimed at doctors but relatively easy to follow. Note that a number of studies including the hydroxychloroquine one came from some obscure little medical outfit in the USA called Surgisphere and somehow these fake studies became part of WHO polic...

Re: Castle/Warehouses In The Sky

Nice one, very nicely done indeed, Gyppo. Some good bloody questions and shades of Dylan di Vilde in there - - enjoyed the read!

Good writing and timely commentary, Indie. The hidden schism of the isms is a mass crevasse for weak humanity trudging toward the edge of a bleak reality.

Wow, I never saw this while I was dropping my comment-version in the other thread first - and I'm glad that i didn't. Very similar take. Nice.
