RE: Old and Bitter (A Winter-time Poem)
Thank you for the kind words :)
But, since this is an interesting topic, even if you don't condone it when people actually do something, isn't that part of why we have fiction for? To explore ideas that we can't, or wouldn't accept in the real world? To see, say, an example case of where someone "revenge killing" or what have you could be almost acceptable?
And yes, I digress, but conversations are fun :)
Yes. Absolutely. I mention my disapproval just to set a reference point to illustrate the effect that the poem had on me. It's really a validation of exactly what you just said. I'm a bit uneasy in the beauty I see in it because in the real world, I would see none.
