      • I am reading and I will do my best to get eyes on the creatives. Being a creative person is never easy, but it is a necessity in my eyes.

        • Art is always subjective but I think losing DUP was a big hit to us poets. But I really hope to see more friendly faces here. I think once people get the hang of things they would see it’s even better.

          I try to do my part as well but life is busy these days.

          Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

      • Well I was hooked from the first line, where does poetry go when it dies? I guess into oblivion to exist but be unseen and unheard. It’s crazy how we have so devalued and under appreciated art in any of its true forms when the world we live in now screams all the things that should make it thrive.

        • Devalued is pretty much everything now. It’s sad, but maybe one day things will come around. I mean if vinyls can make a comeback, why not?

          Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

      • Mic Drop! Excellent write, Nick. Appreciate you.

      • I will never surrender my ink! We’re not dying. We’re simply finding pockets of safety in a world gone mad. If I could put this on my reading list, I would…twice. Damn…

        • A very mad world these days. Which honestly with as many opinions people have you think they would want to write poetry instead of tweets.

          Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

      • That’s terrific and honest.

        Its hard to touch another’s suffering unless you’ve suffered yourself….I feel your pain.🙏

      • You have captured here that which is often so hard to put into words.

      • I’ve been depressed in the past, but some are clinically depressed and can’t get out of it without prescribed drugs. I feel for those people. It’s as though I’ve been released from jail due to time and age and they’re still in.
        This really hits the nail on the head.

        • hello dearest Tim I’m glad you got out of it it’s not nice especially when it comes and goes without reason thank you for the love💕
