    • Awesome poem Nick. Really cool image. I loved Ghost when they 1st arrived on the scene back in 2010. By 2015 I jumped ship. They were getting way to commercial. Debut is like a cross between Mercyful Fate and Blue Oyster Cult. Classic!

      • Everyone’s a critic haha. They are hit and miss for me. But I did really like Impera and songs like ‘Mary On A Cross’ and ‘The Future Is A Foreign Land’. I’m drawn to things that are different even if it’s not perfection. I also don’t mind commercial as long as it seems like a natural evolution. I do wish the lead singer had better rang though.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

    For Granted

    it's the story they've warned us about since the beginning of time you can be born rich then die without a penny to your name and just because you worked hard doesn't mean you can't lose it all you can swear you're sound of mind but...

    • And you are right…Nothing is guaranteed in life. Powerful piece. Nice work.

      • Definitely. I wrote this a year or so ago after my uncle died. He was a man that worked all his life. Was someone that was financially stable, and overnight got dementia and lost everything. Didn’t even have a penny to his name when he died. Just made a lot of bad decisions and was stubborn when it came to preparing for tragedy.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • Yes ,this sound advice. No one is promised anything so you should be happy for the now.

    • Brilliantly penned, Nick. This is an incredible write my friend, and all very true. To quote David Lee Roth: ” There’s not much distance between a pat on the back, and a kick in the pants!” Appreciate you.

    • Can’t take for granted the privilege we get even if there are daily struggles.

      Thanks for the read, friend.

    • Your poetry is infectious. There is no cure. Great!!!

    • A older poem from DUP. It was one of my favorites. I wrote it at a time when I was having a hard time, this one person was spreading rumors and was trying to convince people to not interact with me. Very high school shit haha. This poem made me feel like I had a way to fight back, even in a small way.

      Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

    • I always have to say what’s on my mind for better or worse haha. Always wonderful to see you, friend.
