Thanks Ruby for your thoughtful and considered comment.
There are so many things now that are better than before but peace in ourselves is not one of them.

How seductive the call of pharmaceuticals. Health, happiness, sanity.. all disintegrated by one seemingly harmless cure.
Excellent write, my friend!-

I like this style. Reminds me of a poet I knew. I think his name was JustDave. He had a bit of this style as well. Great ink.

The terrifying thing about these almost disturbing pieces is that they read with such (pardon the pun) deadly accuracy & far too much semblance of reality to them. Damn

I try to capture the play by play and to get the reader inside that room with these individuals. Thanks Willow for the kind words.

I sometimes think people try to hide that there are really bad upbringings. My father wasn’t abusive but I did have a rough childhood. I seen plenty of families that were basically this.
Yeah, that mother fucker deserved it. Great ink.

I’ve seen too many relationships like this. I think people can be rather self destructive. Abuse can also mess with our heads. We tend to believe that we are only as good as what our abusers tells us. It’s difficult to get away from that but most people live better lives once they do. Great ink.

I remembered this one, Keith. This was one of the first endings you threw me a curve. I did not see vomiting while dancing to Foreigner. I like them as a band. But they did have those power ballads. lol. Great write my friend. Appreciate you.

I really like this! Most of us don’t really soak in life how we used to before we had the world in the palm of our hands & information, entertainment & the pretense of connection at our fingertips. Really LIVING a moment has to be much more intentional—a disciplined decision now.
