Another fascinating, thought-provoking and, above all, superbly crafted article, John. Highly readable too (i.e. I only had to look up two words this time). Thank you.

Comment is about The Write Out Loud Poem of the Week is ‘Pay Attention’ by Kate G (article)
Original item by Stuart Buck
Along with Neruda we have two poets who were mudered either for their sexuality or politics. Both men were giants in the literary world and champions in the cause for freedom. This poem is a fitting tribute to one of them.
Thank you for this

True, and a little bit of darkness that cannot be denied. I think it was Jung who said you must embrace your shadow if you ever want to control it. Thank you both.?

Don and Jon,
You are both right. As poets we fight against apathy. As long as we cruise along with ineffective governments and make do decisions the likes of the man in the box will remain there. The inertia and infantile behaviour of present day politics lies at the door of the electorate. I am heartily sick of complaining and then see that fellow complainers do nothing but retire to their comfort zones. Is a two party state really representative of true democracy?
Thank you for your interest.
Keith

As poets we can only 'poeticize' on what concern us. We are just voices in the wilderness. Change can only take place with a mass movement and strong leader. Without this the world's priorities will remain screwed up as Jon says. You may think otherwise.
As Kate says the juxtaxposition is powerfully used Keith

Dorothy and Jason don't ya worry

While Mae's thinking golly what goes?

Me returning from my holidays
So Dorothy and Jason don't you worry

Common sense seems foreign.
To many folk today
They jump in feet first, what the heck
What the heck they say
I'm gonna have a good time
Just couldn't care a less
You say I'm suicidal?
My life is in a mess?
Well stuff it gonna 'joy myself
No matter what you say
Hello? Who's that that's fallen dead?
What more, what can I say ?

Very enjoyable poem.
What immediately strikes me is how financially better off we would be without women.
No joint accounts
Microwave meals
One car
One wardrobe
Clothing only replaced every few years
Holiday for one (no cocktails)
Action movies only (no soaps)
No implants, facelifts, beauty salons
No flowers
No Valentines Day presents
No birthday or christmas presents, etc, etc, etc

Jennifer,
Thank you for your comment. I enjoy trying different styles of poetry which could be described as impressionist or surrealist. There are a few members on the site who are very accomplished in this realm. Perhaps a joint might fire the imagination but I shall stick with tea and biscuits.
Much appreciated,
Keith
