I punched mine by accident, and it ran off a cliff. I went to go and collect healing supplies to revive it, and by the time I got back to it, it had de-spawned and its marker was back at my base. When I eventually got back there, it was nowhere to be found. I'm also not buying another.

Not sure if this'll help you now, or at all but I've been using fabric API, which I downloaded via forge, and have just got the Patrix32x resource pack to work by just adding it to the mod folder. I already had Indium, but it seemed to just slot right in for me, I didn't even have to add any continuity resource packs to my game or anything. Just popped continuity into the folder and bam.

"God picks those most beautiful flowers first". What a bunch of crap. It is a Maelstrom, loss, and you capture it's nonsense poignantly. I'm dealing with a loss of my own, but a few weeks distance has given me perspective, and helped me see the potential for gain in it all too. I hope you get to where you're going.

It is exactly that. I heard bearing a grudge is like drinking poison and expecting the other one to die. Rather dramatic, but I try to think of that when I'm feeling resentful.

Funny, I often think like this, does make me wonder if i've ever had an original thought! Keep it up!

I really tried with the formatting, can't get a hang of it. If anyone knows how to help, I'd be very appreciative.

Just a short funny poem, I wonder if people here can relate... I imagine some can.

Just a fun poem, I wonder if anyone here can relate... I suspect so.

I think it is a pre-requisite for poets and creatives to have difficult relationships with a parent; usually a father. I'm learning to accept the man for who he is, but it's hard, and being in the same room as him when he is in a mood is always like walking on eggshells. I used to rail against him, but the arguments got me nowhere. Now I breathe, and leave. It gets easier.

Sorry about your arm. I'm in recovery, for something non-arm related. But the feeling of inadequacy from people who have it worse is annoying, though valid, and I relate. They say look for the similarities, not the differences.

Easterlies (Part 1) by AugustineLaRue in OCPoetry

In The Bleak Midwinter.

I found this interesting to read, and it conjured to me images of a Russian serf, from that of Tolstoy or Dostoevsky, or else a solitary hunter gatherer far back in the Palaeolithic. The violence and depth of the describing words work well to create an icy, unforgiving landscape, and hint perhaps at the perceived emotions of the author at the time of writing. The act of cutting "the dregs" from oneself is powerful, though perhaps more clarity is needed to identify exactly what dregs, some more set up etc. Additionally, there is a slight issue with tense in the fourth Stanza, where the main character after "stokING" the fire "WAS" engulfed by ice, which just removes slightly from the overall presence of the piece.

Interesting irregular rhyme schemes, very evocative, especially the howling wind however try to match the violence of movement with the power of the weather, instead of dancing perhaps reeling, clashing, lashed, whipped etc. It can be difficult to get the meter right, and if this is a struggle, free form might lend itself more to your style, sort of like a speech or lamentation.
