    • This flow is nice, and meaning is not lost in the rhyme. I like it.

    • Thank you..it’s short and to the point for sure..hope you are doing well..good to hear from you

    • Another piece that leans me in the direction of what is happening with the protection of those involved
      in the trafficking…Despicable people protected by their wealth.
      They are diseased and need to be put out of their ecstasy…

    • It is quite disturbing how the wealthy can buy anything and then cover up their evil doings..sadly I feel the victims will never have the justice they deserve and everything that has happened to them is just a talking point during this moment in time and will be forgotton in the near future..its also sad how these poor victims are used as weapons from our leaders from both sides of the aisle and at the end of the day most political leaders don’t care about the actual victims just the story they can narrate by using them

    Face The Storm Pass

    Rest now… and let the storm pass. Imagine a bedcover hovering over youand it peacefully covers the coming storm. Rain patters the blanketand you feel it become damp,yet you're shielded from another storm.   Rest now… and uncover yourself. Imagine what...

    • Poets bare their natures. Right now mine is stormy with anger.
      I don’t want to hide under the blanket.
      Like you say….too much going on and the blanket is too damp to ignore.
      I relate to your poetry, Daniel.

    The Secret To Writing

    Hating writing? But having felt great about writing? What is the secret? You just have to bleed into the page, no matter if it’s good or not good enough! Write like the ice rain in winter… tapping the window panes hard...

    • “Tap the window panes hard”–yes, it seems the only way to get one to notice poetry. Not the favorite genre of so many…
      They seem not to want to work a little to find something of value in the words.
      I really like this…Daniel.

    • Yes, the secret to writing is simply to do it.

    • I have done a fair amount of cursing in my day, Fia.
      But the muse turns a blind ear.

    • Sometimes it feels like certain people are drawn into your life for different reasons, not always for communication or connection, but for maybe even deeper philosophical meanings than even those can provide (I recommend all the Stoics, of course) It always pays to patient…and observant. Good form and thoughtfulness.

    • Brilliantly penned, Fia. Always dig your musings my friend. Appreciate you, cuz.

      Damian

    • Thank you ;))

    • A very striking and succinct piece. A fire burns in these verses.
      Regards James

    • Your writing always conveys your emotions very precisely, emotionally. I mean this: many thanks for sharing what appear to be deep, deep feelings. Can only hope that time will lessen the pain felt as soon as can, Fia.
