Nothing short of six horses within the apocalypse am I right!!! Once again you seem to notice exactly what I like in a good read, and surely enough you have delivered.
Nice job, my friend; though if you do not mind me making a comment, umm, the layout is a little tricky to read at times, simple is sweet, and the "I's" need a comma after them, it makes it easier for me as a reader to fully accept you are narrating from the horses point of view. I It was... I, It was.
Just my opinion my friend you can happily take it or leave it.
Again, great job, Bicpen...
All the best

The artwork you chose was perfect for your poem . A very strong message with vivid imagery throughout. I guess your notes were meant as satire. Well crafted poem.

Hi Bicpen,

Interesting line of thought for a spiritual poem. It reads very well, the rhythm of the words is good and you draw some powerful mental images in the words.

Well done.

Patrick

    I had a funny moustache once, had it for years...now all clean, what a difference!
reply by Patrick G Cox on 14-Aug-2012
    Can recall the familiarity of the face, but can't catch the name yet ....

    Lucky you living in Stornoway though. I shall have to run this picture mast the Meech and the Slimmon to see if they can supply the name. Or you could put me out of my suffering and just PM me ...

This work has reached the exceptional level

The truth surrounding your words in this poem is in line with these words from Jesus who many follow and know not who he is; as he spoke to the woman at the well; "You know not to who you pray." Those words come true in your poem and truth is always worth six to me. God bless.

This is a work full of thoughtfull takes, providence bought and religion bought. I think it carries weight of imagery with it, though rendered in simple style. It gives a double shaker in: 'I will kill your sons and daughters,
first with my words:
then with my love.'

Am not sure what "Providence" represents here.

Are you talking about the devil or fate?


This stanza seemed to spin the verse in another direction:

I will kill your sons and daughters,
first with my words:
then with my love

I guess it is just over my head.

Hugs, d

Providence, Rhode Island is a beautiful place. I went there once about 6-years ago. I've never heard providence used as a word in a sentence. And for that this poem is excellent. Nice.

Hmmmm...Not sure I quite understand exactly what you are trying to say in this poem. However, it was a very intriguing piece to read. Very interesting.
