Dying is an art, like everything else. I do it exceptionally well. I do it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I've a call.

"We have not touched the stars,
nor are we forgiven, which brings us back
to the hero’s shoulders and the
gentleness that comes,
not from the absence of violence,
but despite the abundance of it."
- Richard Siken

there is no such a thing as anyone not being a poet ... only a skilled and an unskilled one.
skills help you deliver your expressions more effectively
but again you can give a robot the skills too. But the art, the originality comes, from the core..perhaps the soul...each with it's own unique signature.

Someone just asked me where I got the strength to handle a toxic person. I told them it doesn't take strength - only emotional intelligence.
Emotionally intelligent people are quick to forgive, but that doesn’t mean that they forget. Forgiveness requires letting go of what’s happened so that you can move on. It doesn’t mean you’ll give a wrongdoer another chance. Successful people are unwilling to be bogged down unnecessarily by others’ mistakes, so they let them go quickly and are assertive in protecting themselves from future harm.

^ The oldest love poem discovered is 4000 years old, 'Istanbul #2461', but then I read the term originated in Ancient Hebrew & Greece, e.g. - Agape, Eros, Philios, etc.
“When Penny left a banana on her desk as an offering, Jude rejected it. She refused it by putting it on Penny's work chair, so when Penny went to write, she sat on it. As tiny passive-aggressive revenges went, it was adorable, and it killed Penny that they couldn't laugh about it.”

( Lord I don't know how I feel about that one, Jade. I enjoy yours, but when I think of Rumi I don't think of a brain-buster puzzle; I think of a simple read without effort. I hope you copyrighted and are planning a book of these. )
One of my favs:
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about. ~ Rumi

Thank you. And if you’d gone to see, 11 isn’t the usual treatment as I mentioned on this thread. You would see a simple tribute to Rumi meant for this forum, and could have left a comment there.
