    Rhythms of Sunday Chapel and the Rhymes Within

    Saturday's sunset  cracked the pavements of my skin,  I only flirted with the waitress  to keep my mouth moving    Becoming mute was just a covenant  between redemption, forgiveness and  the snow – shuffling into dark clouds  -  waiting to fall backwards     The rainshiver smells of Thursday  dreaming of...

    • Your ability as a writer always makes me interested in reading what you offer today. This is mainly why I find a site to frequent. Not for my own accolades, but to be energized by others’ writes. You do that, consistently. Bravo

      • And this is why I am so pleased I returned to the keyboard a decade ago. I was chatting to our great friend Honoria earlier and I’d love for us all to meet under U.S of A skies.

        p.s. I will have British marines as bodyguards, for some insecure Yanks hate me. Lol. It’s always a pleasure my friend

    • it’s always the insecure ones that hate. LOL

    The Sole Purpose of Gaps

    The Sole Purpose of Gaps   Well here we all are, still growing together but far apart,    so it seems .. Like gaps in a fence or between tiny milk teeth, tho’ more like strangers on a bus, or a pair of estranged    blinded Siamese twins .. But then, there are...

    • The Fourteenth book, and all goes for charity… You are for true a most kind, giving and generous human being💓 You know that I would buy ALL of them if I could, hopefully when I come to visit UK.

      What I read here is something to do with the humans separation, no harmony as one unity. though each one of us might be developing, but there is no union between us. It’s sad… the world and earth won’t evolve when there’s separation.

      • I am so glad you stopped by these words and smiled down so favourably upon them dear Light .. I pray one day you are able to visit the UK and I shall gift you a copy of each .. 🌻⭐💛👍

    • “Milk teeth”… Few will understand it. But that is clever as hell!
      What a wonderfully refreshing read you’ve crafted. Well writ.

      • You are way too kind sir .. But I’ll take it and treasure it .. Kind regards and all good things, Neville 😎👍

    • Haha I love the teeth poem.;))

    • I’ve read this like 3 times! lol.
      I too enjoyed the milk teeth. But I can’t get the visual of blind Siamese twins bumping into each
      other out of my head. Haha. Great write

      • I am honoured Adelphina & mightily so .. Thank you so much for considering this little scribble of mine .. All Good Things, Neville 😎👍

    • How important are those gaps? Very I say when it comes to overcrowding. Nothing like a bit of space to rectify a problem. This poem is so bloomin clever. Must have been inspired by young Astrid. Blind Siamese twins really made me laugh. Such fun here Neville. Love your ‘tooth’ poem.

      • I have just got back from Poland our Chris & wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU for checking in and checking out this particular post before I hit the sack .. I am delighted you took time to read between the lines .. I reckon I shall sleep well tonight .. Neville 😎👍

    Watching Humans Play

    Sometimes the meaning gets lost in translation  Signals are crossed in memories that seem jaded Plastic people are always asking for motivation  Until all the fascination slowly leaves one sedated   Observation is an art form that must be mastered A tactic to study humanity...

    • “Observation is an art form that must be mastered.” I love the contempt you pour on the system, from the “Marshmallow figures” bowing to a “corporate bastard,” to the reality of censored voices. The final, detached image of “Strumming an old guitar while watching humans play” is the perfect, chilling exit from the chaos. Brilliant and perceptive.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Roma. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I do have a lot of contempt for the system. lol. You picked some of my favorite lines as well. Glad you dig the ending, thanks for your wonderful commentary and continued support my friend. Appreciate you.

    • I read this in a minor key….
      Great work.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Peter. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Most of my writes are in minor keys. Usually D minor. lol. Appreciate you.

    • Art is an art. It takes a good eye and connection to emotions. But some treat it as a product. Like Lionel Richie said ‘there are creative artists and created artists’.

      Great ink friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Nick. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Great quote from, Mr. Richie. And it completely true in my opinion. Appreciate you.

    • The games people play are often cruel and thoughtless, and more often they don’t even give their own opinion. Like marionettes, they do and repeat what others tell them. We all should begin to be more authentic and have meaningful and responsible conversations for the sake of all persons involved.
      A brilliant socially critical poem, dear Damian!

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Elke. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I completely agree with you, communication is critical. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • Well thought out and well executed. Marvelous write Damian.

    • I think most poets, indeed most writers in general are people watchers at heart .. You just nailed us with this one sir .,. Write on brother .. Neville 😎👍

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Neville. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I concur with that assessment, we are watchers indeed. Appreciate you.

    • Please tell me this one might have a place on the album. This is what’s called a hole in one! Makes me think about how much chaos is visible of what “they’re” doing. It’s like the iceberg. What aren’t we meant to see? That’s the shit that keeps me up nights. Eyes on honesty, as always, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Actually, I hadn’t considered this one. But maybe I need to take a closer look. Always a pleasure reading your commentary. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • “Plastic people are always asking for motivation” I like the message on this, as if some folks seek validation from others to feed ego. I’ve always thought the initial motivation should be intrinsic so as to have a solid foundation in our true worth. Maybe social media has watered down much of that.
      Amazing work.
