Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Excellent entry for the 8 Words or Less Poem contest.
A beautiful poem about the present state of our country is true. We are in danger of losing our democracy.
I enjoyed reading it. I also enjoyed your unique style and well chosen words.
Good presentation Your writing flows naturally and it's easy to understand.
Good luck in the contest.
Well done.

Thank you for this very moving and timely poem. You have said so much in only 8 words! You used the image of frying fabric beautifully. The final line is very telling. I appreciate your thoughts.

hmm like this poem that could be about almost any of the political battles that are tearing about our society these days. I love ending lines the best as it sums up the mood nicely.

The author's words are creative and thought provoking. I found the poem
to express deeply the repeat of history in distinct ways. I like the words
this author chose to describe this. They were unique and meaningful.
The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome!

What does one do when a country is polarised, when guns are more important the children's lives, when your enemy is your neighbour, so much so, that one needs a gun to protect yourself? When politicians find it impossible to please the people? Disillusionment rules the nation, why doesn't one do something? It starts with me. Blessings good work, blessings Roy

Every once in a while, a short piece of poetry can make sense. Faith nailed it well with the picture and phrase. Well done, and best of luck in this contest.

I enjoyed your poem. I love the intensity that can be conveyed in those four short lines. The image is powerful, and I find quite a good analogy to life. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
This is a sensational summation of our nation and our lives in just eight words. I'm always impressed when someone can say so much with so little. Well done!
I liked that you used an image with a tapestry needle, which ties it in with your words normally used with sewing.

Comment from Sally Law
Faith, this is not only truth in poetry, but cold water to the sleeping, and, hopefully, causes many to wake up and take notice. History DOES repeat itself if we don't learn from it and grow.
Marvelous offering, and contest winner in my eyes.
Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest,
Sally :))
