This is a fascinating approach to the prompt - to populate its spine with triggers and symptoms, while topping and tailing it with interpretation. In many ways, we have it better than ever, and yet atrocities cannot seemingly be avoided.

Interesting. more than the write, excuse me, is the photo. Imagine the throng therein as only the slightest splinter of all the humans that live on this planet. That's a lot of competition and makes for envy, jealousy and combat eventually. Still, you're right.

A powerful write about the nature of man and the need for war. There is only one man responsible for this war and his mental illness has caused many to suffer under his hand. I pray that the madness stops, but I fear whilst this man is in charge, nothing will change, a poignant write, love Dolly x

This is very good what you have written for the writing prompt on Human suffering. You used very good descriptive words and very good imagery from the art work you chose. It is so sad that so many have had to suffer really horrible lives. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

The author's words are heartfelt, sad, true, descriptive and creative. I
found these words to strong yet it is the way thing are especially in
Ukraine. Thank you for the author's notes - I believe there is always hope.
The poem flows and connects well. The artwork goes well with this poem.

Mankind seems to live in a plague-filled world. War after war consumes lives and destroys the environment. Disease kills millions every year. I hope things change someday. Best of luck in the contest.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Shucks, the formatting of this poem alone into the shape of a cross is super creative. Kudos! This is a good entry into the free-style human suffering contest. The text is a nice size. Listing the various situations in which humans have suffered is a great touch. The visual fits well. Good luck in the contest. This is just well-done and so creative!
