      The universe opened in silencebut humankind brought the noise.Among the stars it rose like a plagueand the cosmos trembled before its shadow. Luffaf, word of condemnation,echoes in the abysses without return.Lavvernoskan, the name of ruin,engraved on the walls of time.Sistumbrr,...

        • I felt that using those 3 non-existing words would make it more of an objective impact, so I forged them… it worked. Thank you for being there. I wish you the best for 2026. Big Hug my dear Damian.

      • I love it, Paulo. It is such a strong, foreboding write. You don’t write fluffy bunnies stuff, you write blood and stone. I can always count on you to boost my blood pressure when I’m in a lull. Thank you for this one

      Behind A Grin

      Cutting against the grain is tough Battle tested dressed in scars It’s never easy when it gets rough Unable to reach the falling stars   Opportunity often left to chance I’m so done with second guessing  Forbidden love is a cosmic dance With issues that need addressing   Is...

      • Dear D,

        For me this was on fire. I kept thinking of close calls trying to stay in my lane at the same time of feeling lured into another. With just enough sliver of light to keep the full on pitch black from engulfing my soul. Intense write. Great piece. H🌷

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, H. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Too many close calls, I know the feeling as well. Appreciate you.

          Damian

      • I like how this moves through doubt and self-interrogation without rushing to answers. The questions feel earned, not rhetorical.

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

          Damian

      • There’s a simultaneous sense of strength and uncertainty in this that drag at me. Like you know you made the right choice, but how close was it to the edge? That feeling I know all too well. If we’re not reviewing actions, we’re probably doomed to repeat them. Goes for individually as well as globally. Another layered one. Keep chasing thought, my friend. You always bring gold when you do

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I think your commentary is a pretty spot on analysis, and it definitely applies to both. I’m too old to learn a different trick when it comes to chasing the truth my friend. lol. Appreciate you.

          Damian

      • Love this! Skepticism is not paranoia, though gaslighters may disagree. Experience provides a roladex of patterned behaviors, and when there’s multiple red flags its no longer paranoia but an obvious truth.

        • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Anna. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I concur with your powerful and precise commentary. Appreciate you.
