Well, that was an event, and I think you still did not pass that bulb since you still light up my friend. Enjoyed this piece. Oh, I do not like tomatoed based baked beans either. lol

I enjoyed this from beginning to end. I’d say your grandmother is still keeping an eye on you, my friend. She must know something…

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It hit me that way, while I was writing it. It was a very authentic moment. Appreciate you.

Some of the best writing you have ever shared with us. Sensational and held my interest. Nice work Damian.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, Damian. I love the simplistic history that makes us all humans deep down, no matter if we try to hide it.
I have very vivid memories of one of my grannies. She was a tiny firecracker. Snap a chicken’s neck and yet tend to our little boo-boos with TLC with the same hand.
Burger Chef rocked!
Wonderfully vivid write, it kept me enthralled.

Cleverly penned, Tim. Oh, the life of a writer. Reading this was like Deja Vu my friend. Amazing work. Appreciate you.

Damian

Nice! “Because”, is the perfect answer to why we write poetry. So many possibilities, reasons, inspirations behind that magical word. I agree with Damian. Very clever write, my friend.

Amen brother!
This is a testament for us all. Written elequently enough for us to relate to.

Superb work. Love the boxing metaphor.

hello dearest Tim I hope they find a cure I cry everytime I see a St Judes comercial kids battling cancer my condolences on your family member 💕

Powerfully penned, Tim. Into the book it belongs! The boxing metaphor is clever, people fighting for their life are very familiar with pugilist philosophy. Because it is indeed a fight, and some defy the odds for a while, because they possess a fighters heart. Excellent work, so sorry for your loss. Appreciate you.

Damian

Great write Tim and sorry for your loss.

the innocent way her body grooves
she’s a hurricane burning radioactive

Ah yes, the wicked women all men must watch out for. I’ve seen her and avoided the web though it was hard being they usually look so good and irresistible. Men’s will must be strong.

I like the entire thing and its message. I’d love to hear the music to it. It makes me ponder all the great bands out there that will probably never be heard.

Tremendous work.

I’m a sucker for awesome lyrics, and these hit like a radioactive hurricane! Heheh
Great tempo with lots of energy!
Loved it!

Damian, I love this rhythm and flow LOL Don’t turn your back on her indeed.

Well done Damian.

“she’s got eyes that mystify
makes you wanna take a chance
she’s the spider, yeah you’re the fly
caught up in a web of circumstance…”

I’m totally feeling those lines right there. I will say, I’ve known a few dudes like this…might have dated a couple. This is a killer song, my friend!

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. Unfortunately, I’m unable to talk about the song for a moment. But it will be resolved. Appreciate you.
