The shock of discovering you killed your own. That is a horrible way to find out. I like how you wove this tale.

One of our favorite pieces and movies and to put it in a different era the kids may read this, thank you Lady

This is an awesomely told tale my friend. You have the story tellers gift for taking an ancient story and breathing into it a fresh perspective that is so invigorating to read. You engage the reader with suspense and then that explosive ending. I too thought of Oedipus when that ending came. A worthy addition to the myth.

We really appreciate your reading and comment, much respect

Informative info Fia. Thanks for all you do & the updates here.

For such a new site, y’all are doing a kick-ass job of making it a solid place for writers.
Personally, anyone posting four pieces in a day is a lot. I’d like to see more faces posting in a day, than one face posting a lot in a day. Yaknow? It gets overcrowded quickly… But, eh, I’m just a user here. LOL

I don’t know if I may make a suggestion here, but ….

Is there a way to decrease the size of the header pics above a write, on the main page? If they were smaller, more of the recent authors/writes would show, which makes it easier to spot our favs, etc. As it is, it’s so labor intensive to keep hitting next, just to see a few writes as we scroll. Lesser size would add back more author visibilty on the main page.
Just a (good) idea for you to think about. It would help with the visual flow of seeing what’s new.

Thanks for the news update, Fia. Appreciate you, cuz.

Aww Fire and ice can go together, and you proved it with this write.

Strangely erotic this piece, at least for me.

Nice work Elke

Hahaha, dark romance, freaking awesome

What a hot, sizzling piece. Love the wording and description here. SEXY!!!! Your poetry always shines Elke..xoxox

Well damn! I wasn’t expecting that ending!
(The moon was bad ass that night, wasn’t it!)
The rhymes bind the lines together really well. It was a very sweetly carried poem, until you devour your beau! LOL.
Awesome read!

I feel that it would be worth it.

Darkly romantic just how I like it, hehe.

Passionately penned, Elke. What a lovely dark write with a touch of romance, nicely done my friend. Appreciate you.

A forest of stepping stones on to the ornaments of beautiful life surrounded by the dark velvet of memories.

The dark velvet of memories… Thank you so much for your poetic comment, dear Adagio!
