This is a mind blowing piece. Well done.

Powerfully penned, Nick. Another level on this write, nicely done my friend. Appreciate you.

I like this. The in-between verses enhance the piece very well.

I like different. Very much a high compliment for me.

Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

Love this. Your stories are intriguing and raw.

Uncompromisingly penned, Nick. Raw and to the point, and it goes on in the world today. Powerful work. Appreciate you.

Hehe, in her own way yes. I kinda loosely based this off of a friend of mine. Though I made her sound like more of a slut haha. But she was very flirty, the life of the party kinda person. Whenever you could get her to talk seriously though it would be about how she was having a lot of family issues. Which showed me that the flirting was a bit of a way to deal with those emotions.

Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

Comes off to me as someone fighting depression. Finding away to move forward. Or maybe that’s just me hehe.

Great ink

Life is hard because of those rich fucks in Washington. Great piece. Well said!

Fantastic work. Powerful.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Angel. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Thanks for your continued support. Appreciate you.

Omg, there are so many layers to this one. I read the comments above mine & saw where each came from. This one is a head tilted, brain-teaser. I see isolation, slight inspiration skirting around the edges, darkness peering though & the inevitability of death. I haven’t figured out an improvisation for that one yet. My daughter has decreed I’m not allowed to die though. Not sure that’s gonna workout for her but she says “that’s a you problem, figure it out.” If you know a cheat code on that, I’d be grateful if you’d share, my friend

Intriguing story. Nicely written.

I would have felt uneasy with her reaction too. It was a seed that planted a doubt that something was done and did wrong when there was nothing done wrong.
Nice piece.;))

I don’t trust anyone named Debbie with the exception of Debbie Harry and the adult star in Debbie Does Dallas. Triple D mind you …

The rest of the Debbie’s can suck my ass ….

BIG WENDY LIKE

Big thanks. It’s funny how names impact us. I have a good friend named Debbie, so she has helped blot out the mini bitch Debbie. I attract a lot of Steves, but maybe that’s because about 1 out of 3 guys used to be named Steve.

Seems like a cool person. I can relate a lot to the guy. I am more into music than books and poetry. Also reminds me of all the great poets I came across through the years. How I admired them and miss many of them.

Great interview.

Great piece Damian. Your a talent my friend. Is Pete aware of this site?

I enjoyed this this Damian. I hope he gets to see this interview.

I miss his rapid-fire style & quick (sneaky) wit. Wherever he is now, I hope he’s blowing people’s minds & being properly appreciated. Sigh…

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. I miss him too, he is a talent and a gentleman, I keep hoping he shows up as well. Appreciate you.

Wait, you’re saying Pete is missing? Damn. John Lennon was one of the all-time greatest lyricists ever. It’s so cool that Pete comes from Liverpool.

A lot of guys don’t like taking Propranolol regularly. It’s not a friendly drug for the bedroom, if you get my drift. Works good for hypertension and tachycardia, though.
