Psychological Warfare

A very fine line...

Pulling and pushing.
Certain or not?
Real or fake?
Tangible or imaginary?
Confused or sure?
Do or don't?
A storm.
An oasis.
A tsunami.
A river.
A whirlwind.
A beach.
To trust or not?
To give or to take?
Make a choice or
Bury the head in the sand.
Strong? Assertive?
Frightened? Shy?

Beware!
Psychological Warfare.

Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 4/12/2024 7:39:00 AM Dear Natasha, I loved how your poem explores the complexities of decision-making and the constant battle within our minds. The contrast between certainty and doubt, reality and illusion, reflects the internal struggles we face. It's a way to navigate life's storms with awareness and resilience. Loved it! - Blessings, Daniel Login to Reply Natasha L Scragg Date: 4/12/2024 1:12:00 PM Thank you Daniel. This was a difficult one to write for. I've heard the expression "less is more" and felt that for this theme, this style would suit. I have read some others that are more descriptive and they are amazing as they highlight the vividity of this struggle too :-D
