    • Now that is a thought. No distractions other than living your life. Very, very simple life

    • What I write! And done on the toilet! Lol
      This is quite the masterpiece. I enjoyed all the back and forth. Like reading a tennis match.
      Caveman vs the 21st century.
      Well done!

      Loved the ending!

    • I am somewhat jealous; my toilet poetry is usually flushed because of the brown streaks. You write of the ying and yang of individualism, the brown streaks versus what once was. We humans have lost touch with our origins. We once made cave art, danced and howled at the moon; where it was women who ruled the campfires. And in some ways, we were more intelligent than we are today. We could talk to animals and create myths about the formations in stars. We will never get back to this, but I do think we can create a society where we once again talk to animals and reach for the stars.

      Your poem is thought-provoking and appreciated. Thanks for the share.

      • We love the smell of fresh turnt soil, it’s yummy. We try to stay away from the dark pieces although they are truly easier. But they place us in a very dark place and we still have to deal. Thanks Lady

    Belle's Beast

    • Ooo this is dark. The beast is going to protect her from a beast That is going to be an epic fight. Nice

      • At times humans are the worst of predator, check the stats of missing females of various ages every year. We see movies and literature in various parts ordinary life. Thanks a ton Lady

    • Quite a write! Quite an accomplishment, too. It was well thought out with detail. It’s intriguing throughout too. I’m sure it was quite a task to take on, but you succeeded. Awesome write.

      • Dude, you don’t know tis but we read you. We commented though not frequently on you pieces on DUP, You’re a Mountain or Pyramid acknowledging a mole hill. Both you and your Lady are and have dropped some serious gems, Thank you

        • Understand that I am a lot of a product of what I read.
          Your style is unique, interesting. It comes from angles no one else sees. Individual talent is impossible to throw into any category. Yours is prime material just as much as mine will ever be.
          I am glad that there is so much diverse writers in here, like on DUP. It’s how we grow in new directions, etc.
          I feed off others more than you know. Every pillar holds up the bridge, dude. You’ve earned yours long ago.

    • Of course it’s that time of year, but we’re tryin to revisit this space and create something Halloween special. Thank you Lady for all o your support for sure

    • Loved this werewolf mini movie.
      While reading I was watching it in my mind in black and white!
      Perfect for this month Meme!

    • Aww. The way you feel about her as a sacred and heavenly is beautiful

    • Your beautiful and tender ode to la luna is much needed and appreciated by these weary eyes. To sit out late at night beneath her pallid light while the world goes on oblivious, is true poetic medicine. I praise your use of, welkin, something mystical about that word. Gorgeous write, my friend.
