The heaviest chains are the ones that we put on ourselves. This is well written. I have read your work before and I always enjoy it. In your author notes it says you are sixty??? from your picture you look so much younger.

    Thanks for enjoying my work, this means so much to me, RK. Yes I am sixty, a grandma of 3. This picture is 3 years old, just when I joined FS.

This is something I have done just this week. I have begun to cast off my chains and run barefoot with my willpower to regain my control tower. It feels fantastic! This piece echoes everything I feel and have felt.

I wanted so much to give you a six but it says I don't have one. So I give a five and all my best wishes. :o)

To PUPA,
A short poem od derision and dispair.
Making atonement for the frustations and forboding ways which has created a void in your life.
Nice flow and truth to many who are trying to start again.

PUPA,
your poem is brilliantly written. It's so true we imprison ourselves with the imaginary chains we put on ourselves. Lovely art work and presentation. I love the way your wrote your poem like a letter. I especially enjoyed the lines:

Oh, how I wish I could get rid of you all,
take off your loads of deep blues.
as I do with agonizing shoes.

If I caused you to be, my strength of mind
will manage to craft a brand new key,
to unlock and set my feet free

Cleaver use of alliteration in your poem. Marvelous rhyming couplets: sensation/cration, chains/pains, blues/sohoes, key/free, and tower/willpower. Great use of metaphor with the phrase 'proclaim my control tower.' I awarding your poem five stars of excellence. Keep up the fabulous poem writing.
Melissa.

Pupa, I read you clearly.

I'm afraid a good many of our chains is of our own doing. One of my recent posts shows it all too well, but we continue to use and abuse.

This is excellent and certainly doesn't need any revision. Great thoughts. pat

Pupa, this writing is quite excellent. It portrays the wisdom and acceptance and mental fortitude of the narrator. She recognizes the oppression of negative emotions and thoughts and actions as chains shackling her soul, her spirit. A self actualization, whereas the narrator has a pivotal moment of clarity and gains her perspective, her strength and her will power to break free, by recognizing a truth that is most often not pleasant to face, but determined to change it as an untruth..well done..I love it..jlsavell
