“Silence eats slowly on words never,” said. Damn that is the truth, Nice Damian.

Fantastic

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I have that effect on some women. lol. I talk and they have literally told me it’s too early, my wife still does say it sometimes. lol. You have a great day as well. Appreciate you.

Not enough time when we are living in the good times. When they are over it makes us feel alone. Great ink.

I swear, time is a traitor & the mind is it’s accomplice. And what we don’t say weighs more than all the memories. You go right ahead on & express yourself at any hour. I get told all the time “it’s too early” for me. I refuse to live on somebody else’s clock. Thats the beautiful thing about poetry…it isn’t on a timer. As always, your words resonate, my friend

Lately, I remember someone that I hadn’t thought of in decades. Or, I see a face in another face and can’t put a name to who they looked like. I’m terrible with faces. I had my mother’s sewing machine after she died. My sister wanted it and told me she was sending her husband to pick it up. I knew Bill. I was at their wedding. He was at family getogethers (mostly funerals but a couple holiday). My doorbell rang and I opened it up. I looked in his eyes and asked, “Can I help you?” Of course his response was, “I’m Bill?” I don’t know where my head was at that day. Good write. I have to try some shorter ones. Mine just runaway on me.

“a carbon copy of creation’s
carbon based design
debased…defaced
vandalized
soon to erased
by those who would scandalize
the most basic of human interactions
replaced by something
unrecognizable
where hardly anything makes sense
these days simply because
it was meant to make sense
to someone else”

Naaj, that last stanza drove it home my friend. Brilliantly penned, and you brought receipts throughout. A Masterpiece, brother. Into the book it belongs! Much respect. Appreciate you.

I’d like to bookmark this but I’m not sure if I did or not. Still navigating like a Luddite here lol. I see you’ve been keen to the dark doings for some time. I’m somewhat of a tinfoil hat veteran myself. Once you merge science with spirituality there is no going back, and nothing can ever be unseen. It takes fortitude…and it’s been taking more & more as the years fly. This resonates, thanks for the posting!

An excellent observation on the dumbing down of America. People have become subservient to their phones. They don’t ask questions and they don’t think for themselves anymore. Tic Tock has poisoned so many young people alone. Interaction has been minimalized and your line about big brother is so true. We’re being manipulated for someone else’s benefit.

You’re about Tik Tok. That’s a very dangerous site. Big thx for the support, Tim
Much appreciated.

Wow, that’s awesome. What a sexy voice, Damian. Cool idea too.

That was so much fun. Thank you for the interview, Damian

I think these are so cool. Everyone likes to be heard, and everyone has a story. It was also a great idea for you to be the final interview. Protest poetry haha. Maybe anarchy poetry? Plenty of subjects this world has.

Superb work.

I’m so glad this one made it’s showing. I was going to ask whose page it was gonna end up on but ya beat me to it. It needs to be here! Man behind the questions. And now a new chapter begins? Who’s next, my friend?

Tremendous work. Powerful and poignant.

Beautifully penned, LDF. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Hey LDF…

I was thinking about this piece…

I decided the punctuation tightens the write up…

Very nicely done…
