• The Feather
    A single solitary feather falls into my palm
    I smile ,,,
    This feather as light as it is
    Made it possible to soar into the sky
    To catch a current and glide
    I smile ,,,
    Knowing that even though I am grounded
    My thoughts soar like a bird
    It catches the perfect flow
    I just glide

    • beautiful lovely Fia Styxian is a poet I admire for many reasons ❤️

    • Beautifully penned, Fia. Such a lovely and hopeful write my friend. Mark (Styxian) is a guy that inspires many of us and is one hell of a writer. I like this one a lot, nicely done as always. Appreciate you, Cuz.

    • The imagery in this one is off the chain. Especially for how simple and short it is. Brava!

    • Awwww. This is so heart felt and obviously I get it!
      We are a community of writers. Here to encourage and inspire.
      When I first encountered Mark on DUP it took me a while to leave a comment.
      His work was so good and I wanted to leave a worthy comment and I was speechless!
      I finally did and our friendship grew.
      It makes me proud and happy to see it’s not just me:)

      This write is vivid for its brevity.
      Just wonderful amiga:)

      • Thank you Adel. I honestly still get a little nervous about my poetry. The writing that is posted have me taken aback and rethinking if I need to work harder at this. Thank you amiga:))

    • My dear Fia, we are all writers, if not poets. We are creators, builders. That puts us in good company with the better half of humanity. Hope and kindness carries much of our personal burdens for us. So much out there wants to destroy, so we huddle at our little spots and write of renewal, in so many different ways. It really does help build our strengths, our character.
      I don’t think it is a matter of working harder. I think it is more about expanding on ideas of what to write. The subjects that intrigue us, perhaps. I hope that this site continues to grow, so that we get more and more diversity of talent and expression.
      You excel at this, yaknow. You have great skills for this. Because you truly do love the act of writing, yes?
      We are as good as the company that we keep. You belong.

      • You are right. I will always love to write and express myself this way. The site is growing and new voices will appear. thank you Styxian;))

  • Not Really Mine…

    as passion spills from my pen…
    I show him what I’ve written
    ask if I should share…
    or keep it hidden

    he quietly demures…
    shakes his head and says…
    he would not censure my words
    that I own my verse

    I smile and sigh
    knowing the truth deep inside
    without him…
    these little love notes…
    would not even be here

  • Hell

    Deep down in the fiery pits of hell,
    war has started, if you couldn’t tell.
    The burning souls are screaming,
    the demons’ eyes are gleaming,
    they kneel down before the devil’s throne.

    He’s the one of power, giving the commands,
    for each he has the devious of plans.
    The red-hot flames are prancing,
    as the devil starts dancing…Read More

    Cup of Me

    I am not everyone’s  cup of tea   and I swirl    like smoke     anyway. Bitter. Sweet.  Thick.   Thin. Honey  sticky   on the tongue,Milk  warm   on the lips. Steeped too long,  spilled too fast,Loud  in the mouth,Soft  in the throat. Too much.  Not enough. I do not bend  for you.I bloom  in my own cup Sipped slow,  burning,   pleasure    and sting, Exactly  as   I am.
