a frog in my throat

Wonderful!!! I liked the flow, Ushna.

interesting and quite profound…........

Always profound. Excellent Ushna.

Wonderfully laid bare…the essence of truth…all around us…so well written

very intense….fantastic read….well done! :)x

small lives never let go…confined within their space…tracing the trace of past present the future…it is today that traps them…nirvana not their kismet or their goal.

Great read…applause applause…Peace to you.

An intellectually and spiritually delicious read not devoid of thought or purpose, plunging its way down through the skies to it’s point, stuck squarely in the earth.

Your writing is superb, Ushna! fav.

Beautifully wrought my dear friend…You provoke thought in me…I LIKE that !

death is merely another stop along the way of the eternal life?

the humanity was sharply defined against the belief
diagonal line and the tension between finite and infinite
beyond the bounds of possibility...your words are charged with a high voltage that electrifies the page and charges my mind….Just incredible journey into your thoughts. This was like a bolt of lightning. Full of inspiration and beauty. Love it. xx

You know Ushna, I’ve heard it said many times that “your life” is just a day in your life.
It gets more frightening as we age, but I believe there is a way to be at peace with the entire question. That is my life’s quest.

You have brought up all of the biggest, most mysterious questions and concepts of life all in one poem… I too am plagued by these idaes. Can humans know the ultimate truth? Is death just another stop along the way? God… God? All we can do is ponder, in awe, and live from moment to moment, for that is the only thing we can be more or less sure of. The rest? Is just plain old fascinating.

I love the music in this….the force of the beat…...and how much it challenges us.
THANK YOU for sharing this wonderful work!!!!!!

“this sickness is not unto death”
“death is merely another stop along the way of the eternal life?”

This really sums it up for me, very well done, beautiful work.

A whole lot of thought provoking going on here. Truism is faith, and what an awesome God. Thanks Usna for all of your beautiful truths. :) SZ

Beautiful flow, Ushna!!! Def FAV!!!!!! xoxoxo

“physical and mental control
cut it’s teeth on the cliff edge
live in each other’s pockets”

Just a few of many lines in this work that jump out at me and amaze; inspiring read from start to finish…or new beginning your hope for all. In time I pray that humanity comes to the conclusion that what is real and unchangeble is our spirits…love in each of us a gift of our creator to propergate and unfold for we are immortality with destiny of perfection.

Excellent

Superb s always my friend !!!

Gifted!!! xx

Incredibly profound writing ….you write like a wise sage from the future me thinks:)) XX

this has to be read several times to extract and absorb all the wonderful visuals and metaphorical nuggets that make this so eloquent, wise, and beautiful to read…..... bravo ushna…...... love and light….......b

wow!!!!
This is a bombing of concepts..
Your mind is in war…all the time.And I can feel it today. But it is a roaring like a thunder..that means that from clashing and clashing, from boomming and boomming there is a srot of space, where you recolect your Essence and try to guide it along a trail of thoughts that have been brooding inside… rooting inside.
I confess that there are many concepts, seemingly inconexed but just so.. seemingly, for behind all that proffusio of concepts s layered a mental state of searching and a stressful asking…questioning, objecting to all that your Being perceives in the four aspects of the human development. To cut it short…..which is difficult, I can feel here the unavoidable “paradox” of our mind-soul. The incongruency of reason versus faith, the dicothomy of our underdevelopped mind. We will evolve…Ushna.. I know… or change of material support for existing….. Love it…all of it.

I recall…
A “frog in your throat”
Has something to do with the known story, adapted to our way of living, in which the frog is put into a sauce pan with cold water… and that it will not get out, even she is feeling the water be warming….and will perish by being slowy cooked?....
It has made me smile this expression.
We have a said here…whe one is enraged and using verbal expressions….that one is having “tods and snakes” out of the mouth.
Was… a “by-the-way!
Rosa

intense and powerful…awesome read…

YES INDEED..
the deliberate choice of falsehood about self
YOU.. in all that beauty and Soul are so Expansive and wonderful..

Amazing poetry..I am in awe of your talent..well done.

Because from your pouring words fall one can be swept away and driven to a strange calmness…in spite of the frogs in the throat…this writing deserves it…

congratulations on the features.. I don’t know why this did not show up on my watchlist..
So many questions and deep insights, answers and yet more questions,
like all good philosophers, digging in deep, love your work xx

i see an image of a park with a dude and a megaphone attracting the usual curious onlookers…and a dictum of a high purpose emitting from the loudhailer.. you watch this person for awhile, notice the subtle and some not so subtle arguments…that you acknowledge or wont….and with curiousity you see the crowd…the mad, the bad, the fence sitter the devote and the athiest…you wont poke fun cause you dont tempt fate anymore.. but you dont have any innocence inside left to connect with anything but the two feet that brought you to that spot… and your usual daily habits. You hope for eternal life for this world… but we need to pull our heads way out of our ass to achieve it…and a lot of people have to get hurt to do it… politically unacceptable of course… but this person believes of a higher warmth and magnificence..who am i to disagree. xxxx MS

Profoundly powerful and ironically brilliant! You packed so much to think about into this Ushna! Wonderful work!

Wonderful stuff, makes one really reflect on life..

I have to let this sink in for a while.. my English isn’t all that good so I probably have to read it several times… I like what I feel after reading it though. (L)ove

feel about it

the nausea of being. wonderful writing – t. s. eliot would’ve saluted you!

This is beautiful.

Art takes on many forms Ushna & writting is obviously an art form whem your behind the words!!
