A Series of Thoughts

funny how the mind works innit ..

A Series of Thoughts

 

Like a florin pinned

And

Smiling down

Through

Random clouds

Silent

Though on reflection

Maybe

More like some

Rogue

Half-crown, he thought

 

Author's Note

its how I make a living .. sieve through the information, sort out the facts & disregard the lies, deceit & bullshit you've been fed........ yeah you

A very visual piece of brevity is this Neville. We can look at something/someone with a trusting eye and not always know what is beneath the layers. I believe it is best to form opinions based on our own personnel experience rather than the gossip or grapevine that seems prevalent these days. I have to say the curse of social media. I saw the moon here. Beautiful, serene and never a rogue. A thought provoking and interesting work of art.

I love the thoughtfulness of this poem. It’s enjoyable and relatable and it is hard to trust. You never know the intentions, at least for the most part. Wonderfully executed and written.

[Fabian G. Franklin]

Propaganda and spin is like a shell game of trying to find the pea of truth if there is one. Many folks idea or version of truth ends at where their comfort zone becomes infringed upon. Richard Kostelanetz wrote a book titled Seeing Through Shuck that I read back in the seventies on the subject. We live in a very deceptive world and with the advent of mass social media the shell game has grown exponentially.

[Neville]

thank you for visiting this page Fabian & for your consideration of the words I chose to pin to it ..

[Invisible Man]

You could be saying so many different things with the word you’ve used. With each line you comes a different a experience.

[Neville]

I'll take that as a yes then sir & thank you for it :)

[JE Falcon]

Not all lies are work-related and not all work is worth the trouble. As for this poem, it was interesting.

[Neville]

[Robert Trakofler]

years ago I had a friend that would "draw" his own money he became famous for it his name was JSG Boggs eventually his fake money became worth more than the bills he was counterfeiting! so occasionally a tuppence can be worth a crown, my lovely friend LOL and you know the bunny finds everything shiny it is his cross

[Neville]

The Bunny is not only back I hope for good but has clearly spoke much truth & left a lesson for us all to consider .. Should that cross ever feel like it might become a burden Rob, then give us a shout my friend .............. so good to see ya & hope you are well on the mend ................ Neville x

[lightsong]

Very very smartly and carefully written dear N! to live in a lie and believe it is like that, and to live like a slave without having any will to open the mind more but better to walk in life as a robot since it would be easier than walking it with a truth. I see both faces, the rogue and the slave too.

[Neville]

You have a very keen eye dear lightsong ...... N
