hitchhiker

"That was a hitchhiker" just a line on TV as I passed through I started thinking about cuckoo hitchhikers, parasites none the same a spiral of thoughts, little hooks that join I mean no judgement even the parasite plays a crucial role so much happens as lines cross as we interact perhaps rationed, time limited barely cognisant sometimes about what just occurred

Nice of you to say so Mat. If poetry is anything it is an insight into thoughts - it's interesting to observe what people put together - for me anyway. Thank you for stopping by

Wow, your poem so beautifully captures the intricate web of connections and interactions that shape our lives. The simple mention of a hitchhiker on TV sparks reflections on the nature of relationships and the roles we play in each other’s lives. You have evoked a sense of interconnectedness, where every encounter leaves an indelible mark, whether as symbiotic support or parasitic burden. Yes, your empathy shines through, acknowledging the complexities of human interaction with humility and understanding. This is an exquisite introspective journey through the threads of existence. - Blessings, Daniel

Thank you Daniel, sometimes things just jump out and need writing about. I should take more time I'm sure - but I liked the ideas that instantly linked together for this one. Glad you appreciated what I was aiming for. Thank you for your kind words
