  • F*ck the Game

    anyone could tell you
    I was never a raving beauty
    even my family would agree

    too many freckles
    not enough oomph
    that indefinable thing
    (whatever it was)
    that made other girls stunning

    think of them as Barbies
    and me…a paper doll
    not much without all the added extras
    and even they left details…Read More

    • Willow, you are stating facts. There is no winning “if she is supposed to be better than me” F*em

      • I look back at old photos now and think wtf? I don’t think they can win if we don’t play the game. So I bowed out in favor of just being me. Thank you, Fia

    • Great poem with an honest message. Fuck them all! Bravo!

    • Comparison is the thief of joy.
      Let those that judge lose their joy and you dear Willow keep yours.
      Great write.
      🙏
      P.S. If that avatar is a picture of you, you look more than fine to me.

      • I think if it hadn’t been those closest to me (my cousin not included) doing the comparing and always pointing out my failings, it wouldn’t have been so easy to believe the bullshit. And yes, the avatar is me. Hair colour subject to change without notice, but it always returns to its natural white. Thank you, Peter

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Excellent write with layers and layers of depth and honesty my friend. To be honest I was oblivious to flirting or signs of interest from women. My friends would tell me after the fact that so and so was all into me, I laugh about it now, but I just didn’t think women thought of me that way. lol. I didn’t think highly of myself and when subscribing to that way of thought, it left to me blind to possibilities I guess. That was deep. lol. Sorry about the flashback. You’re a beautiful woman and a kindred spirit my friend. Appreciate you.

      • I lived with my cousin and her family for a year in 8th grade and I remember coming around the corner to her room and hearing her tell her best friend she was afraid her boyfriend would like me better because I was prettier than her. I froze in my tracks in shock. The way society (and family) feeds us such bullshit to tear us down is mind blowing. It wasn’t long after that incident that she told me how she has to play the game. She chose to continue to play the game…on her terms though. I said fuck that and stopped trying. Amazing what we see when we look back through the mirror of time, isn’t it? Thank you, my friend

    • She is a lovely person and she never engaged in the comparison game. She gave me my first ounce of self-affirmation and I’ll be forever grateful to her for seeing what nobody else did. Thank you, Brenda 🧡

    • It took me a lot of years to come into my, as it were. Did modeling in my youth and still didn’t believe in me. Thank you, Gus

    • Hah! I love that version of the chant! I think I’ll keep that one in mind. Thank you, M.E

    • Dear W,

      Fuck yeah!

      Crazy the amount of time we spend on comparisons and standard’s of beauty. I really appreciated this piece for the insightful honesty and realization of standing up to the game. Well done. H🌷

      • My daughter was enjoying this until she reached the section on my cousin’s reality, then she started crying. Reality hit her. There is no way to win, so let’s not play. Thank you, Honoria

  • The Multicolored Vision of an Impossible Insect

    April 23rd opens its eyes
    in multiple colors at once.
    Not a spectrum,
    not a rainbow,
    but a fractured prism
    held together by the trembling wings
    of an insect
    that should not exist
    and yet insists on doing so.

    This creature,
    half mosquito,
    half fly,
    half something else…Read More

    • Crimsin I love how you interwoven this with politics. “Should I die also so that you may live” that is deep

      • thank you beautiful Fia politics is his favored place to be…your comment made me smile also humbling me ❤️

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Excellent write that gives me Robert Johnson vibes my friend. He is involved in everything especially politics and Hollywood. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • thank you dearest Damian in my thoughts I always think I was at the rebellion and I had a choice then to leave with Lucifer of be born human to be tested and die…in my mind he comes around sometimes to mock my mortality…I always answer him the same that Hollywood and Politics are his favorite places to be…for the most part these distract him but there are times he acutally struggles with thoughts I appreciate your thoughts it does remind me of a meeting at the crossroads ❤️

    • It’s the journey and the mystique of your vibes that always
      keep this reader enthralled

      Much respect

      Naaj

      • hello dearest Naajir I know you may not hear him from time to time but I believe you are aware of his motive of operations…I appreciate you getting the vibe here really I was unsure if anyone would… I feel so kooky writing these but I always have to follow my pen thank you graciously ❤️

    • I don’t even know where to start with this one. There’s so much depth to it, and quiet emotion that unwinds in a shout. Incredible, Brenda 🧡

      • hello beautiful Willow thank you for feeling the emotion here it is indeed deep….this goes back to before the angel rebellion we all there some of us chose to born human to be tested God didn’t ever want another conflict…Lucifer feels a lot of guilt but he travels with an entourage and distracts himself in politics and Hollywood…on my end is torment knowing deep down he regrets what he did…I deeply appreciate your thoughts ❤️
