First off, thanks for liking: Big Sal, Jon and Lisa.
I found this hard to write, but also the subject is full of pitfalls for a poem. I don't pretend any special knowledge of the subject, which in a way speaks for itself thanks to the survivors who were interviewed and followed in their last years; difficult viewing.
I hoped to hit the right note, and at least give a few readers on Holocaust Day a window of comment, and I am grateful indeed for those in return.
Dave, that really grates on me; I would be wary of your neighbour if this is his belief. The Knights Templar are a shadow of their former selves surely, and perform in relative security and privilege. Not to be trusted in my book. Thanks for pointing it out.
David, in a simple and perceptive way , you have explained my efforts and aims. thanks for that.
Thank you Phil. The guilt you rightfully mention which I didn't really although the "pointless ache" was part of that. If Zionism is to be accepted, then we in a quandary, for there lies more strife.

David , you make salient points about voyeurism , cinema itself has that fascination often enough, perhaps also TV; are we to be constantly weaned on it. Apparently so. Your link was quite riveting and stylish. Low key lighting helps the effect too. Thanks for that.
It's fair to say I think that the high churches rely largely on the middle classes to carry the banner these days. I noticed choristers are all from educated families. Not a criticism , but one can sense the separation from the poor in such ways . The frustrations of poverty must be closer to violence.
Mark, agreed about Hitchcock who I'm sure had more than enough voyeuristic tendencies himself. That's why he was good at the art. Note the spyhole in Norman's painting !
I can't honestly get involved in considerations of John Wayne, except to say that he seemed to me a pastiche figure who served the purposes of the studios. You and David have explored him more effectively than I could. I don't think that the reality of killing can ever be adequately portrayed on the screen dramas, though a seeming detachment of emotion might come close to it, as perhaps a sort of psychosis might be necessary in the act.
But I don't really know. Thanks for your thoughts.
Thanks all for liking: Big Sal, Dave and Anya(welcome back).
, Ray

I totally agree with Davids comments. The survivors have to carry so much guilt but also fear of being forgotten. Lets not forget, even as zionism undoes so much.

Big Sal - when I commented on one of your earliest entries I got a
more measured reply than is the case now. Get off your high horse
and stop assuming the position that you're on some sort of crusade
against right-wingers(?), old(?) white(?) rhymers(?) who are bent
on your destruction...as if! What is written and placed on this site is
open to interpretation & valuation and if comment is forthcoming then
a rational reply is surely the best response, not a diatribe of disdain
intended to defame the critic's motives or mental/physical characteristics. .

LD - don't get downhearted because of perceived negativity
Any work of whatever sort placed before the wider world will obtain
opinions as to its message, meaning or essential worth/value to the
reader. This sort of site is a place for poetry that stands on its own for the attentions and comments of others, welcome or otherwise.
Personal subjects can connect and have their value accordingly - so
do not be discouraged from posting your work and think of it from
the eyes and mind of someone who finds a kindred spirit in you.

Keep referencing me MC and I'll blow your name up too.
I've been relatively cool through this all considering you both began your bullshit by snarkily commenting on my work to begin with.
You both only comment about me or write poems referencing me or my words when you both get your fragile little egos hurt.
Man you must be in love to keep talking about me indirectly. ?

Keep your head up, Lisa. Do try to remain a little bit positive through it all.

Well, I have enjoyed these exchanges for the various views expressed. The vehemence is on show but generalities should be
carefully avoided. Don't criticise on any grounds that include age
and other perceived distinguishing personal characteristics and yet
adopt these as a defence or justification for what is used by yourself.
Don't resort to mention of mental states in criticism as these are not
only distasteful cheap shots, they are also likely to backfire
when reading the work available from the critic. Enjoy what you do
but try to refrain from taking yourself or your work too seriously,
whatever your style or your message. Life's too short = and we
should absorb its punches with whatever grace and good manners
we are equipped with.- and respond in kind..

Wayne was an actor and playing service roles was part of the job;
as was playing western characters - for which he became famous.
Popular with the US public of the day for the way he portrayed his
various characters, he responded as any actor would - by making
himself available for public appearances - not always successfully
it seems. But that's part of the job he knew and did so well on the
screen for so many years. The way he conducted himself in his
late years, stricken by the cancer that would ultimately kill him
provides another way of seeing him..

(PS genius, I only read the ones you put up that say some dumb shit like "Temple" or "Temple Builder" because then I know your fragile little ego is about to implode with some half-ass rhyme a child could have come up with.
Don't shoot yourself in the foot, save it for somewhere else. And next time come fully loaded Chris Kyle.?

All these petty right-wingers pretending they're poets think they're better than everyone on the site. Them and their toy poodle! Haha?
They're one of the reasons a few great people have left this site, and trust me, they ALWAYS think they do no wrong.
Is it any surprise then that most of them are accepting of Trump and his racist ass policies? White men playing tennis don't get frisked by the police.

You must love copying and pasting my words because every time you come on that's literally what your last 3-4 poems have been about.
I invited you, you ignored me, now you wanna act like I did something wrong to you bruh. Get a life, stop talking about me, and start writing REAL poetry that doesn't have shit to do with a "Temple Builder".
At least I'm attempting to do something good with my words, all you seem to do is complain and cry about hurt feelings.
Keep it up and I can't help but respond from here on out. We have Dennis Rodman over here playing pretend peacekeeper. ?? Damn man you're sooooooooooo cool!

I've been hibernating
Like some poetic monk
Absorbing Builders wisdom
Slowly chunk by chunk
Longing for to lie with
Longing for to share
Poetry with half-clad nymphs
Lying everywhere
(Temple floor strewn with half-clad poetry-reading nymphs -as mentioned before...)
Seems the Temple Builder
Doesn't want to share
Lovely nymphs all lying round
On the floor half bare
T'would be nice if Builder
Could join in the humour
And not get so hung up on
Some malignant tumour ?

Comment is about David Gabriel Caplan (poet profile)
Original item by David Gabriel Caplan
I recall the report that Alfred Hitchcock of "Psycho" fame was
personally unsettled by the sight of a policeman. But the notorious
shower murder scene in his most famous film was a masterpiece
of editing & music scoring that, when examined frame by frame,
does not show the deadly deed but, like the best of its genre,
leaves the viewers' imaginations to fill in the gaps.
Not sure about John Wayne being a "fraud". He was a top
screen actor who made more money for his studio than any in
film, and at the age of 35 was reported to be anxious to continue
a tempestuous 3yr love affair with Marlene Dietrich. His roles in
films that featured the armed services always brought credit
and good faith to the various characters he portrayed and he's on
record saying that he would never play "petty" or "mean". USO
appearances were booed but the audiences considered that he,
along with Bob Hope, Bing Crosby and Al Jolson, were just
Hollywood entertainers looking for good PR. Sinatra also
suffered a similar reception from forces personnel in those days.
