    thoughts from a cold bed

    Death is certain,pre ordained,determined,silent.Silent enough for us not to notice.Dying is around us in every moment of living.It's the price we pay for 'being'.We're born with entropy in every cell.It's the natural way,to descend into chaos,then oblivion.Declination is the...

    • hello dearest Benny good afternoon this is a morbid thought but I live in the country and while outside the flies were driving me nuts and it occurred to me we were walking carcasses and the little bastard was looking for a way in while I was yet living… what happens at a funeral you are right I just hope by then I am onto better things this is a great write ❤️

    • I was tasked with doing several military funerals back in my Army days. It is extremely somber. And, the occasional one after the military years. I’ve always tried to think of it as a celebration of their life. Sometimes it’s how we get through such things.
      Your write is a really good “on point” of how it can play out. And how you built the scenario earlier.
      Who knows, man, who knows. best we enjoy it while we can.

    • Powerful piece my friend. The wording and the flow of this poem gives me a chill and makes me think of my very own existence. Marvelous write Benny.

      • This is an excellent piece, my friend. Not to mention that the construction gives it unusual life. I got a big chuckle out of “Human Beings evolved into Human Goings.” The humor does not detract from the truth of it. One note you might want to fix: There’s a line that begins, “I’ll will miss him …” Choose one, please. 🙂
        Very, very nice work.

        • Thanks….I hate it when there are grammar errors ….so thanks for pointing it out.
          I read that piece back so many times and still missed it.

          • You are not alone there, Peter — or do you prefer Benny? I’ve seen both in other’ comments. Or should I call you, “BackDeck”? Maybe Decky? I could continue asking, but …
            Yeah, I swear that half the time I don’t find errors until I’ve posted that whatever flawed thing.
            Great piece though, BDBP.

            • Call me anything you like just don’t call me late for dinner….lol

              • Okay, Beelzebub, but I prefer short names so I don’t have to type so much. I have an injured right paw at the moment so I have to be careful. maybe I’ll call you Pete. But I WON’T be calling you for dinner — unless you bring the chow and beer. Where in the world do you live?
                By the way, do you work at all in Spoken Word? Have anything on audio you might want to share or have posted? I’ve started a Spoken Word group and I’m looking for potential members.

    • Thank you so much! It means the world to me. Truly. 💕

    • Very cool! Hey we like you via your writes! You have a lot going on in your head, so therefore you are not boring right? LOL
      I like how you search for what works for you, creativity wise. It reads well as a poem, and then the boom as a song.
      This is great stuff.

    • Truly enjoyed the read then when I reached the bottom and pushed play, it completely elevates your write. Honestly, I enjoy reading first and thinking about how it will sound when I push play
      at the bottom. It’s like the music aspect is desert after the meal/read lol
      Hope that makes sense.
      Keep killing it!

      • Thank you so much Adelphina! It does make sense yes! I really appreciate you 🙏🏻

    • hello dearest Drieks we need hope and no one likes me don’t feel bad…it doesn’t matter what circle I’m in I don’t fit one on one I do great in groups not at all… ps I like you I just have failed to comment much of late… this write you should be proud of ❤️

      • Such kind words Crimsin 🙏🏻 this means the world to me. Thank you ❤️

    • “I’m the echo in a room that never speaks
      Nobody likes me
      Because there’s nobody like me
      I’m the secret even silence couldn’t keep.”

      Powerfully penned, Drieks. Excellent lyrics per usual my friend. That chorus above, next level wordplay! Once again your arrangement highlights your words. Appreciate you.

    • Oh, my god this is so good! I just played this so my wife could hear you again (and me) and it is just phenomenal! And what an incredible voice! Give her some love, girl. Plus the music and arrangement, everything is top notch!

    Immortal Love

    Sometimes I can't help but wonder.How do you immortalize love?Maybe by the memories we had together wander. Or trying harder for one another.Perhaps you need to write and sing a ballad.Perhaps a love song,one with thoughtful lyrics. And beat that's very...

    • Favorite stanza,
      “Instead finds new beginnings and ways.
      Maybe the love we have is represented by a sun.
      And a moon that looks down at it fondly”
      I enjoyed this.

    • Don’t forget the scratching of the initials upon a tree trunk!
      Wonderful write with plenty of motivating lines so the reader can ponder your message.
      Well done.
