• Ignoring the Billboards of Morality

    Ignoring the Billboards of Morality the impasse of logic when the bypass is tragic   the psychotic  foresees the victim hiding within  the trees   of fate cornered seen in peripheral vision too late   the little ones grew as the lewd troll eschewed   the traffic with no stop lights no signs of stoppage just those of  yielding to what's coming from the right in dead of...

    • I get the driver ignored what was happening on the side of the road in the woods? Interesting piece

    • Brilliantly laid, Jacob,

      It’s gone wayyy too far when one’s political views are taken so seriously by the opposing radical factions that they’ll get ya killed.
      It couldn’t have been put better than V1.

      I love the Freestyle work, and really dig your title … the voice of present day, and enduring past’s as-well. There’s nothing new about crazy people.

      It’s hard to say thanks to this, My Friend, but poetically speaking, I wholeheartedly do! ⁓ Richard🖌

      • It is such a travesty, all that is going on now in the world and in the world of political climate.

        I am so disheartened.

        But thank you for your kind review.
        j.

    The Birth of Opals

    The Birth of Opals Upon my very word I did once marvel at the seeming birth of opals all along the very subtle curve of her naked back and thighs .. And how within their fiery glow they did so very much resemble the...

    • “She was there until she was gone”—Butterflies are free, like in the old seventies film.
      And women are free as well, they may lite upon our branch for a few seconds…but we must not try to hold them.
      They will come back if they wish.
      Like this poem a lot, Neville.

    • Like a film noir movie this has the effects of heartbreak and loneliness with a touch of moral ambiguity. I can feel the barren parts of life all over it. Good one, J.

    • I wholeheartedly agree with Tim. This does have a film noir ambiance to it. Were you by any chance wearing a trench coat and a low brimmed fedora while writing it? Lol, so good to have your presence here, J. Like you never missed a beat!

      • Thank you, Kelly….I had the trench coat on but couldn’t find my fedora.
        Thanks, it is good to be on this site….I have decided this is my choice now.

        So many of us from WC migrated here.

    • Reminds me of all those movies about city angst. (I am suppressing a rant about how much I hate New York), and all it’s denizens… I can see them now walking down seedy sidewalks in the rain, their furthest horizon in easy walking distance. Beautiful imagery sir, and a nice reminder of how happy I am in a town with only about twelve occupied houses.

      • Interesting what you said. I was from the Bronx, originally and by the time we left…I was so ready for a new place to live.
        Guess I was NOT a city boy even though I was born there.
        I appreciate this review. We lived in a five-story high rise on the fifth floor. NO elevator so it was a trek every time.

        Thanks again, just hope you don’t hate me…ha ha.
