“Some sentences arrive already wounded” is a powerful line. I really appreciated how you treat silence and density as material, not absence.

Beautifully penned, PAR. Such a heartfelt tribute to Mark (Styxian) my friend. He’s a class act and a brilliant writer who always takes the time to comment words of praise and positivity to members of this community. Nicely done my brother. You never cease to amaze. Appreciate you.

A given stone will turn to a polished shine when kept tightly in the palm.
It’s something solid to keep us mindful and kinships and the strength of that.
I am a very down to earth person. I actually do have a few rocks that I picked up from somewhere, because they caught my eye.
I enjoy your writing a great deal, Paulo. It is maturely done, strong in its messages. That is why I bother to join writing sites; to find and read quality material that will inspire me to keep my own motivation going.
Thank you for this, and for your contributions of writing. -
This is as amazing tribute. Mark was touched by this. I remember him calling me and telling me about this write.
I think he forgets how inspiring he is with his writes and comments.
It’s awesome when he gets a reminder!Merry Christmas 🎄!

A song played on a radio, as a teen-aged girl dreams of that secret crush she has. I’m sure that this lyrical gem has been played for so many young women, and men. It’s called a crush because thats what it feels like in our chests, huh!

Chère F.,
Every time I discover more reasons to love your write to bits.
And this is also such an event.
At the end of your poem, you offer a possibility to choose. Simply wonderful, but it reminds me of a song I once wrote. A long long time ago. And its title is Bevrijdingsdag. Translated: liberation day. I wouldn’t write a song with such a title today, but that’s another story.The chorus of the song is forceful and perhaps a bit extreme. It translates like this:
You said ‘Married’ – and I said so what
I’d love to choose if I may
Don’t talk to me about divorce
Everyday’s liberation dayAnd then I asked the public:
You’ve heard it. She said ‘married’. But didn’t say who is married, so it’s up to you to choose.
– is he married
– is she married
– are they both married, but not to each otherRaise your hands!
And I would let the public decide. And I would have three songs ready to fit the decision.
A situation, prone to personal ‘colouring’. My personal colouring that is. I’m not On a stage for nothing.Yes, a bit of a long reply. But maybe an idea 💡 for if and when you’re going to do some beat poetry. The public will love you all the more for this kind of surprises. Really.
I’m a huge fan of open mic evenings; maybe I can transfer some of the excitement to you.
Other than that: keep them coming, please.Warm regards, Gus

This feels raw and self-aware, especially in how it explores the act of reading as intimacy. There’s a lot of honesty here.
