Book covers are meant to draw you in even if the book itself is rubbish.
I used to plough through books even if they were rubbish….not now.I give them about two chapters.If they haven’t got me by then,it’s arrivederci.
Our partners should be treated the same….lol -
I have three books I would like to return. Is that possible.
I must have missed something in those synopses.

Reading has its dangers lol. Can’t help feeling this poem is going to be relatable to many. Made me smile you did Tim.

Clever, funny, and painfully relatable – This is the kind of truth you laugh at because it hurts a little. haha
The final line is brilliant. -

So true! A 20 yr old boy at my local market goes on and on about the girl he is going to marry. They met on the Internet a few months ago and met up in person twice. You can’t suggest he slow down. So often, we think we know it all. I was going to be happy when I escaped my .
mother’s home. First hubby was as violent and crazy as her.-
I really appreciate your comment, Paula. I assumed you didn’t like anything I wrote. 🙂
Yes, some guys are too lost in the fantasy world to see what’s really there. Life will splash some cold water in their face when it’s too late.Sorry about your hubby and mom. I know it’s hard to get over that or forget. My mother was an alcoholic. I’ve had some horror in my life to.

Love the feel of this. Reminds me of this song by S&G…..https://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video?fr=mcafee&p=poem+on+the+underground+simon+and+garfunkel&type=E210US752G0#id=2&vid=6df47f303922526d0faa70e1eaeed172&action=click

Thank you J. Flattered. Song is universal.

Other than that, I’m very easy going. Lol. This song / anthem is central to my poetic heart. Subtitles are provided!

This poem is beautifully vivid and cinematic. I love how you blend the quiet of the night, the train platform, and motion with personal reflection. The imagery of film and landscape creates a strong, lingering atmosphere – really well done.
