Your poem is itself a “disseminating” red sun of apocalyptic truth my friend. Exploding, imploding earth in “hot black macadame tar” fumes...brilliant imagery, brilliant language, form, flow, balance. Chronicles in fossils. Great poem with a most important warning. Kudos!

Ha! I Didn’t even notice- your poem was that good my friend! Thank you much for your words E.:)))
brilliantly penned. strong imagery. garbage in, garbage out. we must fill ourselves up with good things in order to get good things out. what ends up in the landfill is merely a reflection of how we are living and thinking.
past eons honest as fossils - the past and the truth doesn't lie
an apocalyptic warning for mankind. bravo E. ... :)

"Landfill" moments -
watching Spring schemes...
Trash pits BURSTING forth
to shower ...the presence of
prescience
as tomorrows' children play
...today.

Your "Dissemination" and the pic had thought and "bite"...
'.. springing bubbles; melting ice; and - all those words disseminating - past eons honest as fossils.. '
Are you or not saying that only the truth enduress because if that's not what you mean - tis how i see it, loud and clear.. '
A positive BRILLIANCE of words.. and more importantly THOUGHT.. intense thought. You display such power - and it seems to me, near anger, perhaps. If i understand from the rage and range of this glorious rant, you're having a go at the mess our world is in, the spread of contaminated info pouring into the world day after day after day.. ' spreading a suffocation of confetti smalls .. '

Gene, I have yet to consider anything of yours that has not been to my personal liking....that is my first understatement... These words, could never be an understatement, or understated...they kind of blew me each time they are read... and that my friend is a down play on words if ever there was........great write, full stop....

Indeed, when did truth become so pliable? When did the facts squeeze themselves into clothes that are just a bit too tight...and uncomfortable? No side is the right side because no side is 100% REAL truth. Powerful words, E. Lydi**

This is one of the best use of words I've heard from you Gene. Or rather one of the best use of words, period. I will take some time mulling on this one.
