Two in Tents

Comment from Liz O'Neill
Wow, very very powerful. I love the phrase: "and mind gritty" People's minds are gritty and when mixed with the kool-ade it becomes concrete, stuck. O do my best to exercise it every day and to stay alert to changes. The imagery here is great. I would hope the reader would take this message into their hearts and see things as they are happening. You have very powerful metaphors. The two tents represent the microcosm of the macrocosm of the disjointed country and world we live in. Thank you. I would love to copy and paste this onto my fb page for my friends to appreciate.

Thanks so much, I really appreciate your perspecive. Love the micro-macro, you really notice a lot of specific details, and this helps me understand my writing even more pointing out things that I didn't even realize we're there. I must be doing it subconsciously.
I recently wrote a poem about our dividedness, it is called " Duly Deeply Dually Divided "
Thanks again, I really appreciate your comments and friendship here.
Blessings,
Brother Badger

Oh wow...is this true? Because I can see my husband and myself doing this. Tiny houses. This is full of angst about the times, and this situation. Good job!

Great word play in this one, Darren. I saw the pun in "too intense" and "two in tents. " Throughout the poem you have great internal rhymes while telling the story of misplaced priorities causing a couple to live in a sad way.
