      My mind

      Eternal Wounds

      you would think it would eventually heal the gashes would finally seal but even fractured bones will ache long after they've healed from a break so why do they expect perfection when we've been so badly dissected?   we do therapy and group sessions sometimes we do...

      • Man, Willow the thought and precision of this piece. I feel old wounds seep. Brilliant

      • Thank you, my friend

      • Thank you, Peter

      • Powerful work. Alive with passion.

      • Thank you, Thomas

      • Before anything else is the song by You?! or it’s an AI made? Because I was AMAZED by how professional it is, both song and poem! You are indeed talented as Damian said.

        • Every word of this is mine, written in an afternoon of thought. If I still had enough voice to sing, it would be me singing it too. Instead, I had the arm wrestle AI into making the music for me the way I heard it in my head. I use a template of my own voice to run vocals. I lack the lung strength to sing the way I used to though. Always results in an asthma attack.

      • Outstanding my friend, outstanding with how powerful the impact of your words is on us, how strong, profound and real the agnish is in your words. it might took a lifetime to get through abuse or trauma, people might not understand this but You don’t need them to understand. I’ve learned that You can stay incompletely healed, that’s okay as long as You can be aware where this affects your life, what actions and decisions do You make because of it. perfection doesn’t mean to be flawless, but to accept this flawless and embrace it, to understand that we are eventually in this 3D world and even if our souls are high and free we are still somehow locked with mundane limits. Sorry if I talked alot but your words inspired it. A brilliant work beautiful friend🤍 peace 🕊️

        • I’ve come to peace with my trauma and its affects on my life. People will always judge and the number of times I’ve had someone walk away saying “you need to fix that shit” is staggering. This was my attempt to show the reality of being a Survivor from the other side of the river. People are quick to judge what they have no experience with…and I’m glad for that la k of experience. Every once in a while I just need to clear the pipes. Thank you so much, Light💕

      Being Taxed

      • Well..you talk about me musing. Damian this makes you think and think hard. Favorite line
        “Freedom’s a fading illusion masked as a tomb”

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I like that line a lot myself. Well, you set the bar high. So I thought I’d better bring my A game. lol. Appreciate you, cuz.

      • You have nailed a hard and important topic with this one, Damian. The majority suffers at the hands and decisions of the few, and in my cynicism, I feel it will always be that way. We must not allow them to distract us overly much (conveniences, sports, politics, religion) or the sooner our end will be upon us. In my mind the song: In The Year 2525, is ever more relevant. Exemplary piece, my friend!

        Keep writing the good stuff

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Clay. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Indeed, “The majority suffers at the hands and decisions of the few.” Distractions are commonplace these days for sure. I try to stay hopeful but it’s not always easy. Appreciate you.

          Damian

      • this is very powerful it’s true what you say I love this because you brought it to light what everyone knows but don’t talk about ❤️

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Brenda. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I have a history of bringing things to light that most folks don’t wanna talk about. lol. I tend to overthink about a lot of the goings on in this world. Appreciate you.

          Damian

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Peter. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Indeed. After all there is no honor amongst thieves. Appreciate you.

        Damian

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Angel. So glad you connected with the write my friend. The elite have been fueled by greed and power throughout history. The thing about technology is it cuts both ways. What was once done secretly behind closed doors or in some backroom deal gets leaked because there is no honor amongst thieves, never was. Digital eyes are watching everywhere these days and secrets get exposed by those same eyes meant to keep an eye on John Q. Public. But that’s just my two cents. lol. Appreciate you.

        Damian

      • These things are so much on my mind these days. My daughter tells me we can’t move or breathe without them knowing but we can’t stop. If we give up, they win and that’s what they’re counting on. So we keep picking at the cracks in their armor and building our community. They’ll destroy themselves eventually. I’d like to see them go down sooner than later. Another fantastically pointed piece, my friend

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It messes with me as well. Every time my phone or computer turns on the camera for a second, it makes me think how long has it been on when I wasn’t looking. lol. I’ve always written about “Big Brother” watching us since I can remember. Even though the name is dated, like everything else it morphs into something else. Even evil evolves as time moves forward, unfortunately. But I agree that we must keep chipping away at the armor. Appreciate you.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Sometimes I really miss the analog days.. Appreciate you.

      • A frightening rendition of the truth.

      • I fear an increasing number of us are having our eyes opened for us big time .. its a crazy world out here isn’t it just .. Great ink Damian .. Neville

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Neville. So glad you connected with the write my friend. That it is sir. And getting crazier everyday. Appreciate you.

          Damian

      • We are controled whether we are aware of it or not, the technology, economy, fear, etc etc… What’s that AI but soon to replace human! unfortunately a Crazy crazy world! But what I believe that after the complete mess comes harmony, after violence comes peace, after injustice comes the justice. You always carry the world on your shoulders Damian my friend, do take care of You and remember that You are not alone🤍

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Light. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I try to remain hopeful but it’s not always easy. I know I’m not alone and I do have balance in my life. Believe it or not the ranting that occurs in my writes is how I purge the negativity from my head. Thank you so much for the heartfelt commentary it means a lot to me. Appreciate you.

          Damian

          • It’s good and healthy to let it out instead of keep it stuck inside You. I hope your days will be more bright and beautiful my friend 💖

      • Powerful and poignant. Spot on, my friend.

      • Damian we are living in an Orwellian society and your poem packs a mighty punch. You write the reality all around us with eyes that see into the machine. Your poem is precise in its illustration of the dystopian universe we are not approaching but are already living in. Appreciate you.

        John

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, John. So glad you connected with the write my friend. We are indeed living in an Orwellian society. I do my best to get a peak under the hood of the machine when I get the chance. lol. Appreciate you.
