Max, that pretty well sums it up for me, too.
Death, pain, sanity, connecting to loved ones, disconnecting from loved ones, and blessed refuge of silence, mashing, smashing down of strength. Nice.

Thanks for all the comments, especially "acerbic wit" - had to look it up in the Oxford COncise. Max C.

An enjoyable three line structure with some acerbic wit contained in it.

VERY NICE STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS WRITING (it seems to me)
Everything you say doesn' make sense to me, but i can see from that last cloud reference that sometimed I just don' get it. You come up with some great lines like, "hope is ground down", if i were to borrow from you and you didn't mind i'm thinking of the song lyric "the world spins around, and we get ground down---we're mortals earth bound, actin' happy like clowns." Maybe a poem, i don't know.
Anyway, good sufff yea...keep it up.

Re: maxcohen
These lines mean whatever you want them to mean....
If you are asking what is the source of the lines, then I am prepared to say, that the piece was written on a day there were clouds in the sky; I live near a forest, and it gets very foggy/misty on some winter days, thus the clouds block the roads; and on that day I must have felt as if clouds were in my brain.... You are quite fortunate, since I don't usually give a blow by blow account of one of my poems. All the best sir, Max Cohen

"Clouds in the blue sky.
Clouds blocking the roads.
Clouds rambling through my brain."
Are talking about pollution?...about the fog, smog and haze due to open air burning and forest fires?
