    Monochromatic

    if you think about it…
    they don’t have a lot of talent
    there’s really only one color in their palette
    and even that’s growing thin
    so busy painting fences with their hatred
    they’re not even trying to pretend
    hyper-focused on us vs them

    (like there’s really any difference

    • It is strange how for some people their desire for easy, quick answer to complex problems fools them until reality sets in and they discover what their lack of understanding smacks them upside the head. I always found this pithy quote from MaoTse tung appropriate: “Nothing is hard in this world if you dare to scale the heights.” -Curt

      • Failing to look too far down the road will often result in a crash or a near crash. Immediate answers aren’t usually complete. Thank you, Curt

    he knows the sound of my breath
    as it catches
    hovering over his words
    like a hummingbird
    imbibing
    on the intoxicating nectar
    of his expression

    • This tells the reader what you mean but with finesse. Love it

      • Thank you 😊 It was stupid o’clock in the morning so it’s short, but it says what’s important to me

    • For some reason I was compelled to read this from beginning to end, and then reverse from the end to the beginning. The choice of words in this hook the reader so well. Short yes, but sweet. And done with skill and vivid imagery.

    • Beautifully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! This a magnificent little write here my friend. I mean I really dig the wordplay and imagery. Next level good. Appreciate you.

      • This one had a lot to say with just a few words. I just went with what I felt. Thank you, my friend 😊
