Haha this is a good one and I like how you end it with the old saying.

dearest Tim I hate women like that money grubbers trading their looks for cash prostitutes great write ❤️

Powerfully penned, Tim. Another excellent write that speaks some truth my friend. Some marriages are more like business arrangements these days. Cold and transactional it would seem. Just my two cents brother. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

Tim you paint the scene and the sultry women with masterful brush strokes of description. This took me right into the scene so that I could see everything and the storytelling here is excellent. A really great poem that puts me right there and the slice of life here is tantalizing. Our former local coroner married a young lady who had a tryst with the pool boy and the coroner left his wife. As a woman told me he should have known at his age why she married him in the first place for his money. Loved this so much.

My first effort to eave a review here did not post. this is a test for a review, #2.

Well, you may not be Shakespeare, Sam, but the meanings quite clear; you’re horney with no chance at gettin’ any. Bummer.

The concept of the pendulum is put in perfectly. Nice piece

Powerfully penned, Neville. Another excellent write with lots of layers my friend. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you.
