    • Cleverly penned, M.E. This is a very witty write my friend, amazing work. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • Very creative. Excellent work.

    • This poem kicks so much ass! I love it! Offbeat, strange, smart, violent..you! I can see this becoming a film. Extraordinary creativity here.

    • Hmm, no one was wounded, you say. Cupid was shot. lol this is good;)

      • I did say that. Its just like movies, when they say that no animal was harmed during the making of this film and then someone shoot a dog or sth, and then some guy chase him and kill him with a f*ing pencil or something like that. To get an action franchise.
        I am talking too much. Cupid is a piece of shit in here. And he got what he f*ing deserve.

        Lol. Thank you, Fia! “)

    • You made my day with your sweet comment. I am glad you liked it. Thank you! “)

    • This is the first and only piece of yours I have read so far. I must admit, I am intrigued. I stumbled upon you only because you were online (so few are at one time, I have found). But I like it very much; you made me smile with your shots at Cupid, and oh, yes, th little fucker has messed up so many lives, yes? However, I have ulterior motives as well. I am trolling for writers who use audio in their work. We now have a new category for what we do here: Spoken Word, and I am looking for those of us who do that. If so, or you just want to explore the possibilities, hit me back and let’s talk. I think you know HER; aske her about it.

      • Thank you for reaching out and telling me about it. And thank for reading my silly scribbles.
        Yep, he was. I think I have another poem coming with a Cupid as a victim. (Does it seem like I am vengeful toward it?! No? Lol)

        “)

    • I was trying to get a Spoken Word group going here, but that fell through; however, I did manage to get a Spoken Word category for us when we publish pieces — or edit them — if you have audio embedded on the page. We now have a pretty good start at a Spoken Word library if you check it out. Jut choose CATEGORIES on the main banner, then Spoken Word on the dropdown.

    • Moving verse with mystery woven in.

    • You brought up some amazing points in this. We are aĺ human, doing human things. Even our avoidance we are slightly similar. Like this poem very much.

    • hello dearest Benny I wonder if we don’t manifest in more than one place…I like occupying a body but it is uncomfortable but it allows so much for us to interact with each other enjoy our surroundings and eat…someday our souls may return to spirit I don’t know this is deep 💕

      • When we can finally let go of everything, including our ego, then we will be free.
        Unfortunately, that usually requires the death of our body or a life time of training the mind…..lol

    • Thank you, and how you changed the writing typography only enhanced the piece. It has been an enjoyment to work with you.

    • And, thank you right back, Fia! =)

      You’re such an easy breeze to write beside.
      It was interesting fun blending our individual skills and learning how you think.

      You’re uniquely special! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • Beautifully penned, Richard & Fia. Amazing collaboration you two. Appreciate you, both.

      Damian

      • Thank you, Syr Damian 🤜🌿🤛

        Both, for your gracious compliments and your expressed appreciation … this means a lot to me, and I’m sure to Fia, as-well.

        Many blessings unto thee! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • A great collaboration between the both of you. The wording brings attention to every detail like it was under a microscope. Two great writers together….great stuff. 🙂

      • Hey, Buddy!

        Sorry I missed your nice review ; the site missed sending me email notifications for awhile, burt it seems to be sorted now.

        Thank you for looking-in! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • This flows smoothly, sweetly and flawless, the reader won’t feel it’s a collaboration at all, I like how it’s like small promises come together to bond as a one loving poem, the title is wonderful too, a wonderful collaboration for sure. Thank You both.
