fucking shit…. I left for a few weeks now you want me dead… ok im leaving

Um…duly noted. Definitely destruction incarnate

This is rather unsettling knowing the devastation that’s so common these days with active shooters. Very scary.

Powerfully penned, Fia. This is a change of pace my friend, you always prove there is no subject you can’t tame. It’s too close to call, you both delivered amazing writes. Appreciate you.

You nailed this one. No doubt about it. The kind of write that pulls you along in an inexorable tide of power and rhyme. I keep envisioning cement shoes while reading 😁

Thanks for the info, Fia. Appreciate you.

Damian

Excellent breakdown.

Very helpful info. Thank you!

hello lovely Fia good evening you are an excellent story teller this is sexy and fun while being thrilling too 💕

Brilliantly penned, Fia. Amazing write, you’re a fantastic storyteller my friend. Dig this, cuz. Appreciate you.

Damian

very nice. lookin forward to next part.

Powerful and poignant.

Emotions can grab us when we’re not ready. Your mother had a lot of wisdom.

Good one, Fia.

Crying is a way for the body to release hormones that calm us down during stressful times.
Next time you cry, pause for a moment and reflect on why you’re crying.I doubt there will be a logical,solid,single reason.
Great write Fia 💋

Oh stop being so tough. LOL.
Everyone needs a good cry some time. Its how we flush our eyes out!
Hell, I even secretly cry a sad tic toc videos, in private! LOL.
I’m a softy at heart!

Great words, Fia. Now let it out! Cry!

I think I envy those who cry. I can’t seem to, and believe it’s not a healthy thing that I can’t. Most likely it was the trauma I suffered as a child that had me crying buckets until there just weren’t any more tears in me. I agree with your attitude about crying now, and believe your mother’s advice to be very wise. This is strong writing that has me thinking much about the subject.

It’s so much more of a powerful expression this way, in my opinion. It means that if you cry it actually means something. Such a beautiful expression of that.

Beautiful. It’s wonderful to have “control”. Not just in whether or not to cry.

I don’t cry many times. My poetry is my emotional release. But the last time I cried is when I lost my dog. When me and my wife got his nose print I just lost it. Don’t remember the last time I cried before then.

Great ink.

Powerfully penned, Fia. Into the book it belongs! This is an incredible write my friend, love the layers. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

Oh lordy…have you seen the movie The Holiday? I’m the Jude Law character…a weeper! Happy, sad, excited, confused…I’m a soggy mess. This is an interesting view though, seen from someone else’s perspective. Very nice!

This isn’t seen in action though. A report was made by multiple people. Yet it remains.

I am very judgmental and can live with that. But! To attack an individual’s character on the public media is a ‘no-no’. You have a very difficult job and I admire you for that.

Agree 100%, Fia. Appreciate you.

Thanks for saying what everyone should already know. There are plenty of other forums and topics elsewhere to do that crap. Not in a place of sensitivity and creative endeavors! We bear our souls here at times. Damper someone’s writing and it’s like a dagger to the heart! I even feel it when I post and see no comments – but bad comments crush some of us. I go through too much at times in my “offline” life. Sometimes, this is my reality! Thank you and everyone else for making this place safe.

You should publicly name any culprits who are doing harrassment etc.
Everyone should know so that they can avoid dealing with a problem person.
So call them out on it. Perhaps they would close their account and open a new one/New name, but at least make them feel the hassle.
I never understood why people would be jerks towards others, in a writing site.
I do not care for everything I read in any site, but its easy enough to just move on without bothering them.

It’s nice to have a safe place to express yourself. It is sad that you have to tell people to act right. It should be known.

I wasn’t aware this was happening. It’s something that seems to happen on all the sites I’ve been on. Thanks for being vigilant on the matter. It’s what makes a site a good one.
