Grand stuff my friend! I just happened upon your stack and chanced a click in it and was totally delighted! You pretty much summed up the entire Cabal and Theatre of the Absurd Mattix we are residing in Mate!!! As a fellow artist and poet it warms the cockles of my heart to read good works like this!!!

I wish somebody would give me reality cheque. (Or, failing that, a real cheque.)

Namaste Victoria, I found you from Dr Dreams newsletter, and I’m so happy I did. I am an artist, writer, and Filmmaker and your poem spoke to my soul. It’s amazing how those of us who have seen the light of truth have come to these conclusions, but you expressed it in such a creative and fabulous way. Let’s rock on artists of the world. Despite all the nefarious shenanigans!🎈❣️😘

Namaste and grand rising to you Katie! So glad you found me via Dr. Dream’s newsletter and that you actually enjoyed my poem, which, for many, is a tough red pill to swallow. Believe me, I wish it weren’t so, this situation we find ourselves in but we do what we can with what we have, right? Please let me know where I can check out your work. Perhaps all of us artists who’ve seen the light of truth can use/express it to wake people up. Let’s continue to rock the world!

Oh and btw, I’m Victory (ie male) not Victoria. Just FYI 😉 have a wonder-filled day ✨✨✨

Thank you Victory, I like that even better. A strong name indeed. I’m in awe of people who have the courage to speak their truth and be themselves. I’m working on that and I spent so much time writing in my book that now I’ve turned my attention to crafting the apothecary products from my garden and taking them to market this summer. And looking forward to reading more from you.

"the sweet liquid gold of creation

flowing in your soul…

whose source flows

from the Creator

of

All

That

Is"

I believe you nailed the Matrix of the world since its inception. I'm 63 and you better believe it! This is what you got "whose source flows from the Creator" and it's enough. My motto: "create to live, live to create" and stay awake 🙌🏻

1000 thanks Deborah for subscribing, your kind engagement and comments. What a coinky-dink, we're the same age and--idk about you--but I've reached the point in my life where some things finally need to be said; and I'm using poetry as that delivery system. Love your motto and look forward to reading your posts. WooHoo!

We wish we weren't so internally cynical or awake as those powerful entities do everything in our face with impunity -

I hang onto my faith and fiercely independent nature and I LOVE being "our" age!! I also laugh more now. It's a rough go.. life. Cheers to you 👊🏻👊🏻💫

Probably the first poem I've ever read that I liked or could make much sense out of, and this makes perfect sense.

Nice work.

And the concepts apply just as well to scientists nowadays.
