Cleverly penned, Peter. Another excellent write with delicate layers my friend. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

Painfully sweet and the hopeful part had me smiling. Excellant

Thanks Damien and Fia for reading and commenting……I do love tomatoes and I’m sure you do also.🍎

There’s a damn clean erotic metaphor here, with the unripe tomato carrying desire in its tension—green, clenched, sun-warmed, and waiting for the moment when restraint finally gives way. The ending lands hard because “hard and hopeful” collapses the whole image back into the speaker, turning ripeness into both longing and surrender.

Well said, and thank YOU, Fia and Sam for all that you do for us. HJx

Thjank you, my friend. Good info.

Hi Fia, eroterite isn’t accessible: the site is showing as not working. Has it been permanently shutdown? If so can my stories be removed, please and could you close down my eroterite profile.
Many Thanks.
