    • This story started out funny but by the end it got sad and dark … Indeed, a story of true friendship. One friend wanted the other to hear him and the deaf friend wanted to find the other in the desert.
      I found it funny how the devil-coyote spoke with a Texan accent, too! 😀

      • I used to have an audio of this one, but it disappeared. I hope you got my reply to your comment about Rabbit Jack; I ;eft a link to an Audio version so you can hear the accent.

        By the way, the coyote didn’t speak that way; Cooter is telling the story, so it is him you hear. 🙂

    • I don’t remember this one? It’s awesome! I like the liberation that it implies, because creative writing is indeed a form of freedom. This is a very strong write, Del. I can see why you love it so. As do I!
      I’m so happy to see you posting in here. As some others are as well, I’m sure!
      Smooch!

    • Yeah, I think I posted it on DUP before you were there. It was one of those writes that wrote itself.
      I had the title. Just needed to write it. Thanks for you snaps on this write:)
      You are wonderful:). Smooch!

    • Beautifully penned, Adel. Excellent write, again your imagery is crisp and precise. Appreciate you.

    • Hey Damian! Thank you. I’m trying to be online more. It’s been a busy year.
      Thank you for stopping by. It is appreciated!

    • I love how this poem blends cosmic imagery with the deeply personal act of creation. The idea of writing with stars, leaving luminous fingerprints on an infinite slate, beautifully captures the timelessness and universality of poetry. It feels both expansive and grounded, as if the cosmos and the earth are woven together through the poet’s words.

    • Sometimes when I listen to music it gives me images and I was listening to The Black Keys the song was called Little Black Submarines. It inspired everything for this write!

      Thank you for such a wonderful comment
