I read the first part of your Bio and I love your motto of 'Always be happy, never be satisfied.'
I love your philosophy and, I agree with its tenets, as much as I believe in anything, I believe we are always in the now, the moment, and there is no yesterday or tomorrow, as far as the moment is concerned. Thank you for getting me to consider and ponder my existence and life on this planet. I would give you a sixer if I had one to give.
Have a wonderful evening,
Jesse

I think when I have read this poem this is how life is rough and glorious at some occasions. It is interesting and unique. I give it exceptional. Thank you for sharing! Good job.

Comment from DeboraDyess
I enjoyed the poem, Cogitator. We do, as a species, tend to have issues with living for this moment and not in our past or future, don't we.
And I also liked your author's notes, but Evil Eddie (editor) zapped you. Might want to take a look at that.
"The Big Bang of ideas"... What a cool phrase. THAT got my mind going in a dozen different directions!
Thank you for the poem and unintentional prompt.
Blessings,
Deb

I'm no poet, so certainly can't comment of form and structure. As a writer, I do appreciate words and the images that they build. From that standpoint, I found your work quite interesting and thought provoking. Bill

I enjoyed reading your poem. Again it causes the reader to think and that's a good thing. I am not a poet so can't really commit on your poetic form. I'd be wasting both our time.

Comment from dragonpoet
I would think this poem give the point of view that tomorrow is our eternity and all we do today brings us to that eternity. But, I disagree that there is no yesterday. Without what we did yesterday we would have the point of view we have today.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Comment from Zhen Xuan Liu
This is a great poem! I enjoy the picture you selected, fits the poem well. I really liked the last stanza:
Communicate is what we do
Filling in blanks with our discourse
Soon, you are me and I am you
Eternally bound to our source
Keep up the amazing work!

Comment from victor 66
Your poem, it's very interesting. I can't say I comprehend your author's notes, but that's OK. I am a skeptical agnostic. It's not that I don't want to believe, It's just that there is so much to believe, and I would like confirmation. Blind faith just isn't enough for me to believe that God and a cloud are waiting for me. Best wishes.

Thanks much for the review. Our mind is not our brain. Imagining a separate god is not logical . Supreme BEING is a verb, not a noun...John

Cogitator I like how you said ' we don't die, you are so right we all will have Eternal Life. I believe we all have a different view point about of life will be like
