    • Hello Elke. Outstanding story. A stellar piece of writing that captures so much detail and intrigue. A perfect piece for this time of year. Well done my friend. xo

      • Thank you so much for reading and your kind comment, dear Keith! Your comments always tear my heart wide open with gratitude and awe!

    • Quite the riveting tale, Sappho! It was very clever of you to switch up the common portrayals of death and love. I enjoyed all the natural references and surprises you sprinkled throughout this piece. Excellent write, my friend.

      is a small rebellion.
      Every breath you claim
      is proof you are enough.”

    • As we read this we think of our darkness and how it hungers always for more. We constantly watched for the slightest weakness, even inattention is a weakness. But to have it’s icy call within our darkness and acceptance, deeelish

      • hello dearest Me I think of the parst of space that are empty I find peace there it is a heavy dark… there I can be myself I go wandering…someday when I pass from this dominion I hope to explore other plains of existence thank you so much for you very apt comment ❤️

    • Hoi hoi Chère C.,

      And love the artwork too.
      Kind regards, Gus

      • hello dearest Gus good evening thank you most graciously I love the picture as well I thought it went well with the poem ❤️

    • This reads more like a short story then a poem. I love it. The darkness and moodiness crawls into my skin. As I read, I love the atmosphere you created with your words and with the image. Marvelous Brenda. xo

      • good morning dearest Keith I think you’re right I should have listed it as a series it well be part of a bigger story thank you gracioulsy for taking in the mood ❤️

    • Father, I confess to ink the silence, haunting the moonless nights. Well done, Brenda.
