“Silence eats slowly on words never,” said. Damn that is the truth, Nice Damian.

Fantastic

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I have that effect on some women. lol. I talk and they have literally told me it’s too early, my wife still does say it sometimes. lol. You have a great day as well. Appreciate you.

Not enough time when we are living in the good times. When they are over it makes us feel alone. Great ink.

I swear, time is a traitor & the mind is it’s accomplice. And what we don’t say weighs more than all the memories. You go right ahead on & express yourself at any hour. I get told all the time “it’s too early” for me. I refuse to live on somebody else’s clock. Thats the beautiful thing about poetry…it isn’t on a timer. As always, your words resonate, my friend

Lately, I remember someone that I hadn’t thought of in decades. Or, I see a face in another face and can’t put a name to who they looked like. I’m terrible with faces. I had my mother’s sewing machine after she died. My sister wanted it and told me she was sending her husband to pick it up. I knew Bill. I was at their wedding. He was at family getogethers (mostly funerals but a couple holiday). My doorbell rang and I opened it up. I looked in his eyes and asked, “Can I help you?” Of course his response was, “I’m Bill?” I don’t know where my head was at that day. Good write. I have to try some shorter ones. Mine just runaway on me.

Wow, that’s awesome. What a sexy voice, Damian. Cool idea too.

That was so much fun. Thank you for the interview, Damian

I think these are so cool. Everyone likes to be heard, and everyone has a story. It was also a great idea for you to be the final interview. Protest poetry haha. Maybe anarchy poetry? Plenty of subjects this world has.

Superb work.

I’m so glad this one made it’s showing. I was going to ask whose page it was gonna end up on but ya beat me to it. It needs to be here! Man behind the questions. And now a new chapter begins? Who’s next, my friend?

Reminds me that Tom Petty quote “I did it because I had no choice’. Some of us poets just are built to write.

Great ink

Superb work. You nailed it.

Creativity is the proverbial finger…Nice.

What Nick said is pretty spot on. We write because to do otherwise destroys us to some degree. We give it the middle finger because that’s all we can do. Point out the hypocrisy, the hatred, the corruption & the willful blindness in the only means open to us. Somebody asked me recently “Yeah, but aren’t you just preaching to the choir?” I’m always mindful of the fact that words are a wave…once released, who knows where they’ll stop? So yeah, keep bringing it, my friend
