• The Obvious

    And finally, you did the obvious.You cut your nails.You did things so seemingly without meaning. And yet, as you swept away the dustfrom one gesture to the next,you opened a tiny crack.Almost nothing, almost a laughthrough which an ancient wind...

    • Chère C.,
      How can you be so productive and, at the same time, be so consistent in quality?
      Looks like I enjoy everything you write.
      Just a note from the far away fanclub.
      Warm regards, Gus

    • Aww, no sad bittersweet stuff!
      Okay, this is good and it hits the heart in the center. I feel it, through your words.
      Have some great holidays Crims!

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • This write has a gentle sting to it.
      You do both so well. Gentle and sting.
      I love when you blend Brenda.
      Just the right amount of bittersweet.

      Merry Christmas!

    Singing 'Fairytale of New York' in an Empty Karaoke Bar

    As the evening stretches beyond skyscrapers sunset cracks windows and voices, midnight lies as a would-be lover counting her footsteps across Brooklyn Bridge to an anonymous apartment, where she imagines waking to her lipstick on his coffee cup   Washing machine skies spin skeins of colour red always bleeds into the blue and JFK...

    • Dear R,

      The visual and imagined images are outstanding in this piece. For me, there such a sense of coping with life especially at Christmas. You incorporate iconic structures of NY throughout giving this an energetic current running underneath the words from start to finish. I really enjoyed seeing the people, appreciating the buildings and mostly the confessional admission within the piece. Fab write. H🌷

      • As someone once sang, it’s been a good year for the roses. Heart upon heart, life below humility, Christmas 2025 once seemed a distance away. It was only true friendship & family who drove my sleigh. Maybe, one day, I will become a poem. Huge Welsh hugs and thanks H. x

    • The opening catching one’s imagination as you tell us a story through poetry. I enjoyed this.

    • Well now, this is quite a large gift for us readers. Definitely weighty but not overdone. It brings so much to light, as you build the “Blade Runner” scenery throughout.
      really good stuff, Rob. A hell of an offering for the holidays.

      • Never considered the blade runner angle and this is why I always hope to submit on poetry sites. Everyone reads their own perspective. Thank you Mark.

    Beneath the Jaded Sky

      The alleys reek of rum and pine trees,neon bar signs croon atwisted Christmas Carol,people grin, dragging bags ofanxiety and presents,slamming doors behind them likea drunk drummer boy. I sit at the bar, empty glass, empty heart,watching snow waltz across thelonely...
