    • Donald Fagen and Walter Becker were studio geeks. Perfection is what they strived for in their music. And they always had A-list talent in the studio. Like Mr. Gadd as you just referenced. Gotta respect “The Dan” Great song by the way. Appreciate you. – Damian

    he knows the sound of my breath
    as it catches
    hovering over his words
    like a hummingbird
    imbibing
    on the intoxicating nectar
    of his expression

    • This tells the reader what you mean but with finesse. Love it

      • Thank you 😊 It was stupid o’clock in the morning so it’s short, but it says what’s important to me

    • For some reason I was compelled to read this from beginning to end, and then reverse from the end to the beginning. The choice of words in this hook the reader so well. Short yes, but sweet. And done with skill and vivid imagery.

    • Beautifully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! This a magnificent little write here my friend. I mean I really dig the wordplay and imagery. Next level good. Appreciate you.

      • This one had a lot to say with just a few words. I just went with what I felt. Thank you, my friend 😊
