Interesting! I didn’t know about the band name story or anything. Now I feel like listening to Blondie. “)
Well done Damian!

First of all, dammit I miss the reading list option. Rest assured I would be smacking that button if it existed here! I absolutely love Blondie! You should have heard me squeal when I saw the title of this episode…before I even opened it. I remember losing my mind whenever they actually played Heart of Glass on MTV back in the day. Something about their music felt natural to me, not as cultivated for the masses of popularity. So excited to see them featured in this episode, my friend! 🙌

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adira. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. If you loved “Rapture” may I recommend “No Exit” the title track of the album with the same title. It was released in 1998 as a new studio album. The whole album was outstanding with different music styles. But, “No Exit” has rap in it. It’s a collaboration though with Blondie & Coolio. Debbie & Coolio swap back and forth. Killer song. Appreciate you.

First two albums are great. After that they sold out. Great write. Informative and well written.

I am shooting in different direction so I can hit the target. Haha

Thank you, Aidra! Appreciated. “)

There’s just no telling what you will find in my oven, baby, but I love it when you turn the knobs.

Imagery turned into a, Dali painting in my head. Tight spill, M.E. Appreciate you.

A kiss after tea… nice one

My kitchen has 2 items. One sharp and decadent. The other sweet and savory. Nice imagery ME;))

Hahaha! I am glad you have told me. NO DARTS FOR AIDRA. Hahaha

But wait! There is a dart in my heart! YOUR COMMENT..THUMP

Damian captured it well, this has the feel of a Dali painting in poetry form. I love that it’s not structured in thought…it just goes

Thank you, Willow! Highly appreciated! “)

I love the abstract vibe.

Hahaha!
Thank you, Indie! “)

A poem of life, death, and time. Well done, Damian!

It sadly resonates with me…in the form of soul searching, in the process of healing.
Great write Damian ⚘️

This really hits so many issues in just one short poem. For some reason it brings to mind the insane deportations…families torn apart. Probably because that’s my fear, my daughter…Muse on, my friend. I’m here for it

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adira. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Appreciate you, back.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Being an alcoholic who no longer partakes, I’ll say the biggest thing I’ve learned is how many people I hurt. When I was consumed by the disease, I couldn’t see that. I rationalized I was only hurting myself, that’s how hollow I had become. Appreciate you.

Damian

Wise words blended into a tight rhyming poem. You’re good at this stuff!

A philosophical and strong poem. Well done.
