      • At times humans are the worst of predator, check the stats of missing females of various ages every year. We see movies and literature in various parts ordinary life. Thanks a ton Lady

    • Quite a write! Quite an accomplishment, too. It was well thought out with detail. It’s intriguing throughout too. I’m sure it was quite a task to take on, but you succeeded. Awesome write.

      • Dude, you don’t know tis but we read you. We commented though not frequently on you pieces on DUP, You’re a Mountain or Pyramid acknowledging a mole hill. Both you and your Lady are and have dropped some serious gems, Thank you

        • Understand that I am a lot of a product of what I read.
          Your style is unique, interesting. It comes from angles no one else sees. Individual talent is impossible to throw into any category. Yours is prime material just as much as mine will ever be.
          I am glad that there is so much diverse writers in here, like on DUP. It’s how we grow in new directions, etc.
          I feed off others more than you know. Every pillar holds up the bridge, dude. You’ve earned yours long ago.

    • Of course it’s that time of year, but we’re tryin to revisit this space and create something Halloween special. Thank you Lady for all o your support for sure

    • Loved this werewolf mini movie.
      While reading I was watching it in my mind in black and white!

    Neruda's Lips

    Neruda’s Lips   I have flayed your body with my tongue of fire, suckled your youthful breasts with lust and desire, eaten your musky whispers with the deadliest of sins, and all the common words of my peasant’s pen.   You are the poetry of my land, the dark earth...

    • This poem beautifully channels Neruda’s sensual spirit. The union of passion, earth, and language. The imagery feels both intimate and elemental, echoing the way Neruda made love and nature inseparable.

      It’s a stirring tribute that captures his essence…beautifully penned.

      • Neruda’s love sonnets are some of the best poetry ever written (IMHO). And yes, exactly, love and nature are inseparable, flowing in and around each other. Thank you, RomaJ for your lovely and muchly appreciated comment and visit. You are always welcome to walk through my poetry.

    • This has so much passion in this. I agree with Romaj beautifully penned.

    • Damn!
      Excellent! You had me at “flayed”. What a vivid, well placed word.

      • I love that word (flayed). It felt and sounded right to use it in this poem. Thanks for your observation and for the fine comment.

    • You turned the poem into something else with this, “and all the common words of my peasant’s pen.” Following the next verse, IF you didn’t brilliantly did this, it would have been just a strong sensual poem, but with how amazingly You brought a higher level with the last two line of verse one, then the gorgeous verse two, is what makes the poem very special to me, exploring and expressing a deeper connection. I believe Pablo would admire this🤍

      • One of the things I love about Neruda’s poetry is his use of everyday words. With them, he word paints images, metaphors and a feeling of LIFE that exists and surrounds us with HOPE.

        Light, thank you so much for your insight and understanding of what I wanted (no, needed) to express. If Neruda were still alive, I think I would be tempted to send this poem to him.

    • It was/is my pleasure to “whisper” and a big Thank You to the Roman Goddess, daughter of Cupid and Psyche. It’s not often I get a comment from royalty. Not sure I am worthy, but it is appreciated muchly.

    • You are most welcome my friend🌸 and consider your poem sent, his soul is still out there, just call Him 😊

    • Yes, please post it. I would love to read what, how you see Neruda’s love sonnets.
