    • I thoroughly enjoyed this story, Damian. I love the simplistic history that makes us all humans deep down, no matter if we try to hide it.
      I have very vivid memories of one of my grannies. She was a tiny firecracker. Snap a chicken’s neck and yet tend to our little boo-boos with TLC with the same hand.
      Burger Chef rocked!
      Wonderfully vivid write, it kept me enthralled.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mark. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. Cool, somebody remembers Burger Chef. lol. It is the simple things in our histories, that really show our similarities as human beings, couldn’t agree with you more. Grannies, are just different, in a good way. Appreciate you.

    Moonlit Candlelight

    Moonlit screams as they ripple the air from the grave of a girl. Moonlit corpse as she appears through a blanket of mist.   Moonlit ghost as in life, she’s lost, angry, whispers secrets.   Candlelit giggles as she’s in the flesh her glinting emerald eyes....

      • hello dearest damian I think my problem lies in the inability to properly set boundaries and when I finally stand up for myself it’s with anger and people are taken aback I think if I set consistent boundaries from the start it woud be better my problem is I see good in everybody thank you for understanding 💕

    • Hello Brenda. Magnificent piece of writing here. So many suffer with loneliness and depression. It’s not a good feeling at all. Stellar work my friend. xo
