    Astronaut, Swimming

    The International Space Station  witnesses 16 sunrises and 16 sunsets each day    A child throws watercolour shoals at the wall  awed by the beautiful carnage he created    One day he may read   a poem about butterflies  guillotined in thresher blades,   and think of this...

    adventure and be damned..

    Wild as wildLittle to eat - other than something unrecognisable. Don't think I'll bother!  Yes,  asked for a bhuna curry; odd, usually prefer hotter. Must have been in a mood - not like me at all, at all!  Ha! ...

    • This is interesting. At the end of the story, it kind of reads like a spirit looking at its past. Their photo is smaller than yours, and the way you described the stars and looking down.

      • Many thanks, Fia! I worked that with a thought of developing it more. I think your review might be the first one I’ve had on here. Have been wondereing if my writing is suitable, up to scratch, whether or not to try harder or leave. Maybe I’m not meant to write, not knowing whether I’m happier with prose or poetry, neither of which is better than the other. Maybe best for me to merely review. Am feeling low about even attempting to write. Makes me sad. Makes me low. Hope all’s well in your world, however, remember you having ups and downs in the past. Poor girl.. woman (You)

      • Many thanks, Fia. Not sure how this poem reads, whether or not I misplaced its core. Will leave it be for a few days then re-read it as if unknown to me. Will work or not. Be happy.

        • I write both on this site and it is easier to get comments on poems than writing but I read the writing. I enjoy the talent people show, and if you think no one is reading, believe me, someone is.
          Either you get the thumbs up or comment. Not all of my writing gets comments.
          I am reading, I’m here for you;))

    • Without a doubt, you’re a brilliantly kind person, a comforter and adviser in one. You deserve a medal!

      Maybe I’ll work on my poetry. Trouble is I have always loved poetry, one of seven children, our house was full of books and of many, there were hundreds of poetry and prose, anthologies, etc. Sorry, taking up your time.

      Perhaps will pinch some of my poems from wc? Could, yes? Re.reading and selecting might nudge any hope of birthing new ones. Please say yes!!!

    • In my humble opinion, your style easily slides into any literary site. There is a taste of the esoteric, dare I say, almost eccentric to your wordscape. This reads like the diary entry of Vic & Bob’s weekend sister.

      Regarding your communication with Fia above. Once we lose belief in ourselves, we just become caricatures of what we could have been (if that makes the remotest sense).

      • Initially, when I first joined an online writing site, ‘intended to write prose, thought of myself as a short story writer. However I found that poetry was read and reviewed far more than the former. (That or my prose was thought terrible which – let’s be honest, was more than possible!)

        Your final comment is so true regarding the character in my post. Has been for me too – now and again – and again! Many thanks for leaving a review, plus, sparing the time to do so.

        Your words certainly made sense.

    • Brilliant work. Good to see you here.

    • Thomas! Yet again, many thanks for leaving such a welcome review. The word ‘brilliant’ smiles me happy! You’re always very kind, sir. Is good to see you here too. 🙂
