naught save the peddlers of art
where entertainment’s a la carte
and the menu card’s kind a faulty
yet here we’re reasonably comfy
so show us the justice of poetry
lost in the valley of minutes and years
it’s audience so glad to have been found
consumers shall ever-consume and
restlessness gaze at sighs of those at ease
the hand that wipes away all fears
never to reveal their private peace
Wowsers! I am NOT jealous ( yeah right! )
Brilliant Red, just brilliant!
Thank you.
best of regards.
Tom
Good morning Rolph,
Again, thank you for your very insightful interaction. Glad that the relevance factor has been expressed here as well. Your feedback is crucial to my internal writing “algorithms.” 🌷🙏🏻🕊️

Good morning Red,
The way you explore the commodification of art and entertainment really hits home. There’s something powerful in how you highlight the cycle of consumption, where we’re always searching for meaning yet never fully content. The notion of society offering distractions to ease our anxieties, but never revealing true peace, is thought-provoking. You’ve captured a feeling that feels so relevant today — like we’re all just navigating a menu of choices, never quite finding what we need. Great job!
Have a nice weekend,
cheers,
Rolph

Aww, thanks Tom… truly humbling! And as long as we remain mates a bit of ‘envy’ either way can be a healthy motivation to be our best selves when we can. 🙏🏻🕊️🌷
