    • I like this “Do not go gentle into the gas blight”. 😊

    • This should be under Fia’s comment, but my computer will not put it there for some obscure IT reason. So I put it here.

      Fia, It should be “Centle,” like with pemmies, but the eye does not see the “C” ’cause you’re expecting a G if you know the Thomas original, “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.” I expeect many, maybe even MOST people will miss the C.

    • Well, I guess it’s fixed now so yay for that. Personally, I think it’s the ghost of Dylan Thomas screwing with me ’cause he doesn’t like the new version of his famous poem, Well, I say, “Aw shucks, Dylan, have a heart — or something that sounds sorta like that.

    • The atrocities of war felt by everyone

    • Powerfully penned, James. Another excellent write about the horrors of war my friend. The casualties are not just the ones who lose their life in battle. It’s returning soldiers and their families that carry those scars as well. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Thanks for reading. Generations of damaged people. War is not what people want. Presidents and premiers choose it for us.
        Regards
        James

    • I can speak from experience. Many times the civilians are truly the major suffering. They didn’t sign up for any of it. I’ve seen enough back in my days that I learned what a crock of shit most of it really is. Politicians and profits and land grabs.
      Great write, Knight. You don’t have to be a Veteran (or active military) to understand the plight of so many.
      Well spoken.

    • Thanks for reading and comenting. Only billionaires and politician win wars. Everyone else looses.

      Regards
      James

    Where One Begins

    Come close,   beneath your nearness and the warmth of my skin, until neither of us knows where one begins.   Your mouth finds my neck, then pauses there, a whisper of heat caught softly in air.   I feel your restraint before I feel your hand, the softest tension I can barely withstand.   It...

    • ooo… this is good … very sensual and intense

      • Thank you, Sam. I’m glad the sensuality and intensity came through. Sometimes a little mystery makes the journey all the more interesting. 😉

    • Chère G.,
      Come close, a better and more inviting intro has not be written so far.
      What a beauty you’ve made.

      And the final four sentences are the cherry on the cake.
      Love it to bits!
      Warm regards, Gus

    • Gus, what a lovely thing to say. I’m so glad the opening drew you in, and the ending stayed with you. Thank you for reading so thoughtfully and for your wonderfully warm words. 🙂
