Oh, Underbelly Me!

Love your poem. Ive read it a few times and i can truly feel wjat your saying

Thank you, I'm glad it came across :) Even if it is a negative topic.

Yours isnt negative. You should read my poems

Besides poetry is beautiful when it is beautiful. It doesnt matter what the subject is

I am so curious as to the connection of the he... there is hope for afflicted... if you were he.  Is this about the double standards of life?

Thank you for asking! I wrote this for the "God For A Day" comp, and the 'He' is God.

Yes, about hope, but you'll need to read the outline for the comp, the crux of it was that the poet need change the same thing inside themselves as one would like to change externally in the world, if presented with the opportunity.  

A pretty cool idea for a writing prompt! It was great to get into this and write it regardless of the competition itself.

That makes a lot of sense once the HE is identified.  I tend to have a friendly relationship with divinity in my poems.  In part it is to confuse the religious friends.  In part it is to give them comfort.  The irony is that my version of God (He) is much different from most peoples'.

Well done, AtoMikOne.

Amazing imagery!

Big hugs <3 😊

I had to RL this. The quality of your writing is superb. Likely my favorite poet (poetess?) on this site.

EDIT: I was unsure if poetess was actually a word. It, in fact, is. Had a fair chuckle at myself.

Wow, dude... that is such an honor! Thank you so much!

That's rad, you basically invented the "right" word :) Not surprising, since you have an exceptional grasp in the English language.

"Love is in the luck "

another superlative opus.......gritty imagery wit a tender "underbelly". ((( I would deep kiss it if I could)))))

Thank you kind sir!

if i could bleach the crimson cord in "you", "i" would be a dusty floating sack thrown over an unknown constellation.. wew! great poem with twists turns violence hope and nutty stuttery crumbs going.. oh no! ithchy clumb curdle clompoeso maybe something went white.. probably not. just giving friendly feedback despite the request 😤😷😉

That was a delightful comment if there ever was one! :) I greatly appreciate it. So glad you enjoyed it, thanks dude!

I am in love with the first stanza and of course the "Love is in the luck" - aint that the truth :-))))))

another excellent scribe :-))))

Whoops, I over read this, gotta turn back, what'd she call it? Something under belly. There it is. Let me read that again. Loved it the first time, but now He is in context this poem is more alive. Let me put it in my pipe, AtoMikbomb, better than any weed.

Thank you man :)
