    • I second this addiction. I feel lost and unfocused if I do not write.

    • I third this addiction.

      I love the written word..mine and others.

      Great write,right,rite,wright….lol

    • Very relatable Willow. Thank you for sharing 💕

    • Brilliantly penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! Infectious vibe your words and the musical arrangement my friend. It’s the one addiction that I feed and I refuse to kick. You summed it up well as you always do. Loved this one Willow. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

      • I think this addiction is more healing than harming. It’s how we clear headspace and reset. About whatever is naggin’ the noggin. I knew you would feel this one too. Thank you, my friend

    • You express perfectly what most of us here feel, dear Willow! It’s the same with me – I scream, weep, bleed and laugh my soul onto the paper.

    • It’s horrific, that ‘silent scream’, the self-reflection not seen in the mirror, the expression held inside. I hear your pen, Willow. It’s LOUD!!! But I welcome it. Let the ink flow, make Rorschach’s of rage across the page. Just know, you are seen!

    • Brilliant work.

    • I don’t run the pen. It runs me, girl. As Shrek said…Better out than in. Excise the wounds so they can heal clean. Thank you, girl. You wield a mighty pen yourself

    • Thank you, Thomas

    Secrets of the Field

    Secrets of the Field Above the green and yellow   rape set field, a pair of white, fixed wing gliders begin to arc and wheel, in search of aerial ecstasy    like two sky hungry falcons .. Oblivious to gasp and sigh, invisible to naked eye amid the...

    • This hurts. a lot of deep meaning behind this.

    • Powerfully penned, Neville. Wow the pain and hurt in your words cut deep my friend. Excellent write. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • Too many ghosts, too many horrors in that field, Neville. I can imagine if you look close enough, you can see blood mingling with the grass, feel the stabs and thrusts, hear the screams. A place where even a blue sky, soaring hawks, and warm sun, cannot make this place feel safe, welcoming.

      Beautifully written Neville.

      Curt

    • Although seemingly it was just a field, it was also one of those rather special places I happened to stumble upon that had its own very strong atmosphere .. a bit like Lourdes, or Deeley Plaza (for me anyway) .. and it was only afterwards when I did a spot of research that I found out about the history .. I can still feel it now as I type this thank you .. Thanks a million Curt .. Neville 😎👍

    The Time has Come part 3 (Mother) The end

    I haven't been home in a while. It still looks the same. The fake facade that everything is bright and beautiful when the beauty is an illusion, hiding all the decay. Anyone who has a heightened sense of smell...

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. Excellent storytelling as always my friend. The final battle was intense. Seems like a bittersweet ending to me. Even in death the mother left a mark. Appreciate you, cuz.

      Damian

      • Thank you, Damian. I thought about that even the evilest of parents may have one streak of kindness left.

    • Ouch’ that’s taking mother love a tad too far methinks .. Just who’s side are you on he asked? Matricide, she replied .. Just ripe for Halloween my queen🩸🖤🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🦇🦇😎👍

      • You are correct, my friend. I was trying my hand at writing darkness. lol I am not good at it, but it wrapped it up neatly. Thank you, <3

    • A very engaging story.
      Troubling and sinister.

    think I got it with this one…

    the world goes quiet when I think of you
    as if the noise remembers to be kind
    the pulse slows down the edges soften too
    and somethin steadier begins to bind

    I’ve spent my life in motion hard and fast
