    Typical Saturday Night

    Bloodshot skies acting like a backdrop  Trees sway amongst a whispering wind Redemption glows within the moonlight While destruction lies around the bend   Seductive rivers carry manipulated beasts Who bring war to those considered different Hatred fuels these sinful calloused hearts By using influence to seduce...

    • I guess we all have our interpretations. I see a line of young people heading into a club or hanging out outside it to hear hip hop or rap. Many may disagree, but I see that kind of music as negative and detrimental. Just my two cents.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. To me every kind of music or creative outlet has its negative sides, as well as its positives. Nothing in this world is exempt from good and evil. That’s just my two cents, for what they’re worth. lol. Appreciate you.

    • “While destruction lies around the bend”

      It’s interesting how the word lies changes the entire tone when read as one definition over the other. This is such a cleverly written piece. And powerful, as you excel at, my friend

    Lady of Sorrow (Ch.3, Raven)

    Days later. I had written so little between Raven’s suicide and the days following. During the daytime, I would sit quietly in front of my laptop staring at a blank screen. Then I would naturally become frustrated and restless,...

    • To see the world and its inhabitants as they truly are and be able to accept them is being “woke” then I am too. Nice stream of consciousness.

      • I will never be ashamed of supporting those who are just trying to live their lives. I mean I feel extra worried for trans people. When you have the vice president calling trans people deranged it’s mind blowing. Scary times.

        Thanks for the read, much appreciated.

    • Spitting fire, Nick. Into the book it belongs! A very powerful write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • I believe you can never lose when you fight with truth.

        Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

    • !!!!🙌 So on point, my friend! That’s all I got for words here. You done said it all🙌!!!

      • ✋ such a great comment. Honestly I’m just happy to see there are people that see the ugliness that is happening.

        Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.

    • Hell yeah! 💥
      Really, it’s gotta be the most lame-ass insult I’ve ever heard. If someone is calling people “woke”, does that mean they’re admitting that they’re asleep..? And… proud of it..? 😆 Geez.

      Love this write!
      ❤️k

      • Yeah, it is very stupid. And yet they keep saying it like they’re on to something. Literally they’re saying we shouldn’t think. It’s just as stupid as that movie don’t look up.

        Thanks for the read, friend. Much appreciated.
