This free verse, The Fiddle, presents a few images of lightning and its purposes within nature and our seeking, imaginative minds.

    Thanks - given I was the only entry that did not get a vote I have a lot of work to do - a fan story is a good place to do it. Any thoughts re what I could have done better?

    If your name is sttsched, you simply need time to develop a following. Some people get votes just because it's them.

    Thanks - Makes sense! I'll try to make it happen through better writing and name recognition.

You have an interesting question within the course of your poem and you answered it. Everyday we see it but don't believe it. "Some say god but give the devil his due." This is the answer for devil walks on earth wanting souls to steal. It is a good entry for the free verse poem contest.

How the violin steals the soul only to release it in agony for the devil, a soul so near,

But always left swimming in the wind.

What great lines! I enjoyed this poem! Great imagery. Great flow.

You are absolutely right in this beautiful and relevant poem.

The amazing thing is how easy it is for the manipulators to manipulate in masses.

Thanks for sharing. You said it best for me in these lines:

You shall be great again cries the bow
The crowd erupts to this fiery draw

Who forges these masterful instruments, the fiddle and bow?
Some say god but give the devil his due.

I will gladly upgrade this rating. However, right now, I cannot read your words because of the font color. I think if your font color was black it would be very legible.

Have a great weekend...Bill
