Hope is huge these days. Thank you, Adagio

To be honest, I hadn’t even thought of Halloween. 😂 Just nursing a bit of pain. I actually didn’t think on it much at all. This was a write and drop piece. I tend to do that when emotion is high. Thank you for your thoughts, ME

I’m not entirely convinced my muse will give me much time off. If you saw my unposted drafts…egads. Thank you for the support on this one

I felt it too…like a baseball bat to the crotch. There were layers in this one. World and…life, if you get my drift. Thank you, my friend. Your continued support means a lot

You’re not far off the mark on this one. As I said to Damian,👆 there are layers to it. Where it takes the reader is between them and their imagination. Thank you for your thoughts, Fia. Much appreciated

Many care. The rest are just noisier. Thank you

Well, I don’t smoke and I’m a tragic lightweight drinker. Just a full blood hippy who lives by the Moon. Still, I get your drift. I guess when I was writing this, I was reminding myself that my little whimpers are fairly insignificant in the grand scheme of things. Thank you for your thoughts, Styxian

A permanent Trump sounds like eternal hell. It’s bad enough dealing with it now. And we still have years ahead. I don’t even like the contemplate what will happen next. It’s like living in a minefield. Thank you for your thoughts, Peter

We can’t always hear the blow coming. We just find ourselves flat on our back in agony. Such is our world at present. Thank you for your thoughts, Adelphina

Thank you, Thomas

Incredible compliment coming from you. Thank you, 253

Truth and facts right there. We gotta pick each other up. Thank you, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Love the classic stuff myself. After Kath passed away, Cetera took control. His vision was more pop, and less horns. Like I said the band lost it’s soul without, Terry. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Roma. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Terry Kath, was the heart of the band for sure. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It’s something we all need in my opinion. Appreciate you, cuz.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adel. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I love that line as well, gotta love the classics. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Neville. So glad you connected with the write my friend. He was one of a kind for sure. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. They had some decent songs in the 80’s. But Peter Cetera took control of the group once Terry died. He envisioned a more poppy sound with less horns. It just never had the soul of the classic 70’s sound. Terry Kath was their heart, and they were never the same without him. Just my opinion. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Benjamin. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I agree. Cetera’s vision of the band was a huge departure from Kath’s. The 70’s stuff had balls, it had heart and soul. Killer live band, Kath’s blazing solo on 25 or 6 to 4 comes to mind. You know your music. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mark. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Well thank you, that means a lot to me my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Ghosteen. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I love all kinds of music. I started out a metal head, but I’ve evolved over time. lol. Good song. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Keith. So glad you connected with the write my friend. The first album was killer, Kath, was an amazing guitarist. Hendrix himself, told one of the horn players in the band, that Kath was better than him. According to legend that is. lol. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Nick. So glad you connected with the write my friend. No we don’t it’s a shame. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, John. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Love them too, Terry Kath, was their heart and soul. Chicago after his death was a more pop/rock. Thank you for the excellent commentary. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Kelly. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I’ve heard that Hendrix said that as well. So cool you got to see them live, that had to be an amazing show. Elite musicianship throughout that group. The man on the sly trombone, Mr. Pankow. Danny Seraphine was a beast on the drums. But, Terry was the man. He made the guitar talk and sing. He had a hell of a voice himself, very soulful. Thank you for the lovely commentary. Appreciate you.

Damian

Thanks for checking it out amigo.

Thank you! It’s a phrase I’m thinking about for my next book!
It was originally going to be Poetry Stained Teeth – The Golden Addition but me and my typos!
I put addiction instead and I thought – Hmmm, I dig it! Hahaha

Hi Roma. Yes, that’s exactly where I was going.
How we can be so caught up in what we think is good for you and over do it.
Tricking ourselves into destruction.

Thanks for the comment!

The sun hates everyone that’s why we get sunburned. Hahaha
A little is okay but too much is painful. It can feel like an oven.
But I see people baking out there, loving it.

It’s forgiving

Hi Thomas.

Thank you. Wanted to post something a little edgy and different.
Sometimes I want to sound like a poet and sometimes I want to sound like a mess. lol

Thanks again!

Oohh. I dig this comment! Yes expand with no end. When our time comes our life force transforms into something else entirely. Into energy and off we go! Being on that level of transcendence, I can only imagine.
