    why tell

    College first and competitive, too many conquests tried me: I gave little but smiled a lot!  Clothes a la charity shop became popular, its volunteers who ran them admired the flat-breasted touch of my body! That meant I had...

    • Emma, this is a well narrated story of the history of your writer’s life where college took you. This glimpse into the past was quite stimulating to read. I loved how the life events unfolded and reading this story that felt like an entry for a memoir.

    • Many thanks, you found the thread running through time and kindly accepted the truth of my words. There is a future to come but with pauses for self reflection. More than that, I don’t know yet! Patience or adventure!?

    • I just found this… Oh! You write, such indigo between lines.

    • weirdly, this reminds me of someone that i used to love, from afar.

      This has a great A-B flow to it. Nicely done

    • Thanks Fia! I wanted it to sound almost like a lullaby. lol

    • Hello, can I interest you in a Frankenstein type guy? LOL.
      I love when you get all voracious! This is a dare ya write, you know!
      Okay okay. Enchanting write, Vampira! I love the aggressiveness of it, the baring of fangs and display of an appetite for human consumption…
      It’s super well done and well timed for the coming season. Perfecto!

    • I was in the mood after reading all the fun stuff
      And you are just my type mister. Perfect. 😍
      I’m glad I enchanted you with my fangs!
      Next time I see you I’ll bite!

    • Beautifully penned, Adel. Excellent Halloween write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Thank you Damien!
        I enjoy fantasy horror.
        I love Van Helsing! The one with Hugh Jackman.
        And The Mummy with Brendon Fraser.

        Thanks for checking this out amigo!

    • Nice and spooky for the Halloween season. 🙂

    • Even though I am not a huge fan of Halloween, this is pretty cool .. in fact it’s bloody much better than that .. Neville 🐈‍⬛🖤🐧😎👍

      • Nev, amigo!
        When I think of Halloween I remember getting on the tailgate of my dad’s truck with my friends to go trick or treating.
        Some of my best memories. We would do each other’s makeup and have a blast. lol
        There are a few neighborhoods in my hometown that still go all. People will park a block away and walk with their kids up and down the neighborhood.

        I’m glad you enjoyed the write! Now go take advantage of all the awesome chocolate varieties on Halloween 🎃
        Snickers & Twix! Even the Reese’s peanut butter cups are cool:)

        • You can beat an egg and a drum but you can’t beat a Twix can ya eh’ 😎👍

    • Oh! This is good.

      • Thank you!
        I wanted it to sound like a dark tale from Disney. lol
        Hope that made sense!

    • Tis the season for the undead. Great ink.

    • An interesting write, suitable for the season.

      • Well hello there Mr. FlatDaddy!

        I wrote this around three years ago. I was in a vampy witchy mood. lol
        Thanks for stopping by amigo!

    • Poetic oxygen is hanging by a fingernail in our world. But! There is hope. Well done, Willow.

    • Thought on this one Lady, maybe to much. We think it would had hit even harder if posted closer to Halloween

      • To be honest, I hadn’t even thought of Halloween. 😂 Just nursing a bit of pain. I actually didn’t think on it much at all. This was a write and drop piece. I tend to do that when emotion is high. Thank you for your thoughts, ME

    • Extraordinarily compelling ink ma’am .. I was hooked from the off and enjoyed the ride write to the very opposite end and no kidding .. Write on my fine literary friend .. Neville

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Excellent write my friend with precise imagery and wordplay. Felt this one! Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • I felt it too…like a baseball bat to the crotch. There were layers in this one. World and…life, if you get my drift. Thank you, my friend. Your continued support means a lot

    • The way you combined nature and human in this piece is breathtaking. We should not be used as collateral damage for the error of polluting the air. That is one way I took this piece.
      Then the ones that are cast aside unnoticed.. That is sad, but I believe that there is someone noticing them. They may not know what to do to bring more light in their black hole.
      Just thoughts I got from your piece.

      • You’re not far off the mark on this one. As I said to Damian,👆 there are layers to it. Where it takes the reader is between them and their imagination. Thank you for your thoughts, Fia. Much appreciated

    • the same as for all of us – some care
      thank you Willow

    • Wow. This is a cigarette and a shot write. It is almost bitter, almost defeatist. Yet it also feels like you’re scoffing at the processes too. You need a seashell necklace while writing like this. Reminding you of what’s salty out there.

      • Well, I don’t smoke and I’m a tragic lightweight drinker. Just a full blood hippy who lives by the Moon. Still, I get your drift. I guess when I was writing this, I was reminding myself that my little whimpers are fairly insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Thank you for your thoughts, Styxian

    • Willow…you had me from the first line and held me there until the last.
      Message delivered and your mission accomplished.
      The universe never pauses.Everything rises and ceases,nothing permanent….thank God.Imagine a permanent Trump.

      • A permanent Trump sounds like eternal hell. It’s bad enough dealing with it now. And we still have years ahead. I don’t even like the contemplate what will happen next. It’s like living in a minefield. Thank you for your thoughts, Peter

    • This is dark with a lot of reality in it too. You nailed it with your silent hammers.
      What ever the subject matter your writing is it’s articulate and thought provoking.

      • We can’t always hear the blow coming. We just find ourselves flat on our back in agony. Such is our world at present. Thank you for your thoughts, Adelphina

    • Brilliant use of languge and great imagery.

    • damn…incredible write.

    • The world is all too willing to leave the hurt ones behind. Great ink friend.

    • We see each other. We hear each other. We fall together. We rise together. Thank you for seeing, Volupta

  • On our group “BACK TO POETIC BASICS” we’lll soon be covering anything poetry anyone wants to address.

    We will meet here once a week each Wednesday beginning October 22nd, 2025. Our first session will begin with the Sonnet.
