Sentimentality

....is both dried berries and nut tree, by the leafage, the sunlit the phizog, oaks skirted the edifice's entree. he never mentions his mother as unreal. as I involve my mother, did he prevent her? mawkishness - spawned a popping sound, What a foolish, & semantic quibble. mawkishness - To defy reason, & sanity. m a w k i s h n e s s - It's nearly dreadful, in its evilness, mind-bending, in its hurdles.

I felt the power of your words as I read your poem, Lasaad--starting with the opening line (both dried berries and nut tree)---and ending with the emphasis on mind bending mawkishness.
