  • Glad to hear this dumb monkey evolved past the tribal stage. You are very smart!

    I grew up secular with no religion and my search for truth eventually led me to realize God exists. But after reading your comment I realize I had just been a dumb tribal monkey. I forgot how I must’ve grown up religious and just forgot, and my lazy thinking led me to this convenient falsehood. You’ve really got a deep understanding though- can I buy your book?

    I like this one better than poem 2 personally. It’s another take on what I see as a similar tension, between being grounded and in the air / aloof. The line about fruits, like the idea but I think you could potentially flesh it out more. What draws the “you” in the poem to the ground and fruits? It seems like a preference that isn’t touched on, maybe that’s the intention but seems like describing their preference could help further color the subject’s tension / struggle

    I like it. Wondering if “… In slight” was a typo or just a play on words. Also I think it would be prettier without curse words but depends what you’re ultimately going for. This feels to me more like song lyrics than straight prose with that style of repetition
