    • Love this! Also, great music taste!

      • Hi Drieks!
        I LOVE your taste in music so to know we are in tune with our tunes made my day!
        This was my version of the song. lol

        I’m a huge fan of Queens of the Stone Age.
        I’m also a huge fan of Brody Dalle:)

        Thanks for stopping by my rose patch friend:)

        • I’m not familiar with Brody Dalle. Looks like I have some homework to do! Thank you for pointing me towards artists that are new to me. I love discussing music. Have a wonderful day ❤️

          • She was married to the lead singer of Queens of the Stone Age. Divorced now but I love her music! This is one of my faves.

            • I’m so glad you mentioned her. I’ve been putting her songs on my playlist one after the other. Thank you!

    • Dark and dragged kicking, we love it Lady

      • Hey Meme!
        Thank you, thank you!
        I was in a mood when I wrote this lol
        I love females who can kick some ass. Hahaha

        Later gator!

    • An army of you?! The world isn’t ready! LOL
      This is rockin! I like the edginess of it, too. It shows a side of you that doesn’t get aired much. The grit and the power-punch lines. I love it! That’s my girl! (Woman!)
      Keep that fire baby, you’re going to need it soon! What!

      • Hahaha, an army of me would be fabulous if I do say so myself.
        We would storm all the Pandora jewelry stores! Hehehe

        I’ve been told I look like other people! Stopped in the mall and all kinds of stuff. True story!

        Thanks for all the encouragement and support babe.
        Means the mundo!

        • I already explained to you why people think that you’re a TV personality etc. Because you have so much in common with what it takes. The charisma and personality. The looks, obviously.
          Yadi yadi yadi. Don’t be getting all smug and self-righteous on me! Lol

    • Aww thank you but you are biased! lol
      Self-righteous never, smug on rare occasions!
      Hey I’m human not perfect lol

    • This is a rip up the road poem. A take no prisoners poem! A plasma TV for the ship’s deck matte poem! Walk the plank on roller skates poem. Eat a box of pop tarts in one sitting poem. A half-gallon of chocolate milk in one chug poem. lol Good one.

      • Hahah. I love the energy of your comment! Woop Woop!
        Thank you for catching my vibe buddy.
        If I remember correctly you were the one who said I have a doppelgänger on DUP!

        Roller skating off a plank! In real life I’m a klutz! I’d roll off before I get to the end. 😂

        Thanks for stopping by amigo!

    • Powerfully penned, Adel. Love the vibe and attitude of this write my friend. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

    Not a White Flag Situation

    it's become a hazea blur of painful imageryas we fumble through this sickening fogwearing the dayslike bruises around the throat taking only tiny bytesbecause anything deeper chokestoxicity already sitting heavy in our gutscorruption and ignorance go hand in handit...

    • Corruption and ignorance go hand in hand. Yes, I whole heartedly agree with you. We must see the truth and act on it. Powerful write.

    • As if you read my mind and what I was thinking as as articulate. 🙂
      I almost got ht by one of those flagy pickups yesterday. 💚

      • I think I’ve hit my saturation point for imbeciles. They’re everywhere with those flapping flag and bullying. Ugh…

    • hello beautiful Willow powerful write the darkness threatens to swallow me whole I feel you ❤️

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! This is’t a write it’s a statement my friend. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • I called it a tantrum. My roommate suddenly decided I “got shit to say!” and wanted to share with everyone he knows. Gotta watch us quiet ones…just because we aren’t making a scene doesn’t mean we aren’t making some noise. Thank you, my friend

    • WHOA!!! Some truth telling going on here. It didn’t fall on deaf ears, cause I be listening. America has always been 2 countries within one country. Today’s fascists were yesterday’s slave owners and slave bounty hunters. Thank goodness there are still wide awake decent people who in their millions took to the streets a few days ago. And even better, there is, beginning Nov 5, the determined, nonviolent, movement to oust these MAGA maggots’ regime.

      Yes, it is often true in history that people were warned but didn’t listen, sometimes people just need to have a fire lit under their arses, before they can see straight. I think we poets have a role to play in this eye opening!! Your poem Willow is a welcomed salvo (or perhaps to be consistent with the metaphor), a welcomed match for that fire.

      Thanks for the much need poem Willow.
      Curt

      • Oh, I’ve been bellowing. A few here can tell you I’ve been mouthing these frustrations for a hot minute. We do what we can and encourage everyone to do their part, whatever that is. That’s how we make change. I just wish humans weren’t so determined to repeat their worst mistakes. History is the best teacher…which is why they’re trying to bury history. Don’t want anyone to see their playbook. Thank you, Curt

    • Raw and unflinching. You’ve caught the weight of complicity and the ache of resistance in a way that feels both urgent and true. An incredible read!

      • I often find truth to be very urgent. Because human beings seem so determined to ignore, bury or deny it. They have their flags. I’ve got my ink. Mind is always stronger than might, I think. Thank you!

    • Okay, now I know. You not only know how to write beautiful, powerful words , you also know how to deliver them. I certainly want to speak to you, Willow. Please visit with me.

      • I’ve been expressing myself through poetry for years. Decades, really. Only recently been messing with spoken word. I’ve never been able to find anyone who could read it as I feel it. Some things I leave naked, no spoken word. Thank you

        • I certainly understand that. Not everyone here who has posted work reads it themselves. I do, but it’s because I am also an actor. I’ve spent my life on stage, in one guise or another, and I find it difficult to hand it to another to perform.

          • Due to personal issues, I am unable to voice them myself. I have to rely on AI to get it right. And it takes a lot of fight to get it right. I wish I could simply read them myself

    • Who made you promise not to cuss? In the immortal words of my old coworker…”fuck that!” I hear what you’re saying. And not saying. Thank you, girl

    • whooee, thanks 🙂

    No blood

    I don't need blood no blood at all as a god I can survive on anything don't need a seducer for a sex crazed night no, I don't need that still I seek it out like a man possessed oh how I love subtle twitches the ones...

    Die Alone

    I can't seem to heal these painful scars the ones that are running down my arms feels like my time is coming to an end when every thought pushes me to the edge and as I breathe into the night I know I'll never...

    • This is a good Halloween poem. Life is cruel and die alone is the worst.

    • Awww. This is writing that comes from everywhere. From watching loved ones go through suffering or ourselves.
      Writing is a great escape but sometimes it sticks. There is no escaping but in that moment of writing we are controlling the pen. We are the master of how it’s written. This is powerfully bittersweet.

      And I gotta give a shout out to that pic!

      • My writing goes to dark places more than i would like. But it’s a way to get those feelings out.

        Thanks for the read friend

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • The world can get pretty dark. though I would like to think it’s not about the end but about the now.

      Thanks for the read friend.
