    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Pulls at these old heartstrings my friend, thanks for sharing. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • Look back but always step forward. This was inspirational, Brenda. Thank you.

      • hello dearest Daniel thank you for the love on this I was feeling stuck so I wrote about it I’m going to keep pushing forward 💕💕

    • I’ve been telling myself the past is not a destination. But it is a guidepost. Despite memory & fear, there’s nothing waiting there. Just an empty space of was-ness. The step forward can be terrifying though

      • hello beautiful Willow I can’t help but retrace my steps thank you for your understanding heart yes it is scary I’m doing my best though I deeply appreciate you bein here 💕

    • This was great… well penned dear poet…

    • Beautifully penned, Naaj. Loved the message of the write my friend. All cat’s are amazing from domestic to the big cats of which you speak. It is a tragedy corporations want to profit off animals by imprisoning them, and sometimes the animals are treated very poorly. That’s Capitalism for you, they don’t treat people any better. Into the book it belongs! Amazing write. Appreciate you.

      • Def inspired by the pic, I wrote this being so moved spiritually.
        It’s an older vibe but still resonates within

        Thx always for the energy, bro

        Naaj

    • As a tree lover myself, I get you Adira. I’m glad you share my sentiments. Thx fur dropping in

      Naaj

    • I am perpetually in awe of nature. The prey they hunt are no joke, either. It takes serious force & power. These animals are mean & resilient. I work in the wilderness, and there’s been a 350-400 lb eastern black bear male stalking lately, I’ve seen him 4 times in the last six weeks, (with mama and cubs sighted significant distance away)….I am desperate to catch a photo but easier said than done lol

      If I saw a tiger I guess it’d be pants-shittin’ time.

      I don’t like zoos & circuses either.

      • Big thx for leaving such a thoughtful comment, Benjamin. Much appreciated

        Naaj

    • The power of their command is felt and yet they are caged to be looked at as if it changes the core of who they are. This is a good piece.

      • I can only imagine what it might be like to be caged and admired simply because I’m thought of as exotic.
        Thx for vibing with this one, Fia.

        Naaj

    • Always appreciate your support and insights, Duende.

      Much respect indeed

    Public Service Announcement

    Good evening, I’m Damian DeadLove. Breaking news, folks. No, not that depressing propaganda that has infiltrated the world. I’m talking about SpotLight coming to Stars Rite. It started from humble beginnings on DUP, but then turned into a powder keg...

    • Whoa!!!!…Lookin forward to the execution
      from this collab!!!

      Let’s go!!

    • LOL, Damian, it would have been a blast, but it would definitely need an act of Congress to pull that together. Obviously my mind would have went sideways and took us down and erotic rabbit hole.
      I cannot wait for the new Spotlight.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the story my friend. It would have been fun, but difficult as well. So it’s a bucket list item, maybe life will slow down someday and we’ll attempt it. I would expect you to take us down that rabbit hole. lol. I can’t wait to do a new SpotLight as well. But for now it’s the classic episodes. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • Love this!! When I was a kid I wanted to be a meteorologist. How did you know? Nice storytelling here.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Keith. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. It was a lucky guess, unless you’re just fooling. lol. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • I just can’t even imagine…

      But I’m looking forward to seeing the July featured poet! 🙌

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. I knew you’d be ready for a new SpotLight. lol. Appreciate you.

    SpotLight - Fia Naturie

    I’m Damian DeadLove. You might know me from Backstage, or possibly from right here at DU. This is a new show that’s meant for DU, it’s called, SpotLight. It’s a Q&A show, or an interview kinda vibe, if you...

    • Hey, that was a nice walk down memory lane. For the first interview, it went well, I think. Thank you again, my friend.

      • Very nostalgic indeed, Fia. It did go well for the first interview. Each interview has it’s on vibe, because each guest brings a different flavor to each interview. I guess that means Fiaberry on this one. lol. Somebody had to be first, we made the blueprint my friend. Your welcome. Thank you, again. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • It’s back! I am STOKED! Big grins here, my friend 🙌

      • It is back, Willow. Glad you’re stoked my friend. Then there will be a brand new SpotLight in July. To start the Stars Rite era. Thanks for all your support for both my shows, it means a lot to me. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • This was a great piece. Fia totally deserves this and much more. She’s the heart of this site & DUP! Nice work Damian.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Keith. So glad you enjoyed the interview my friend. Yes, she deserves the SpotLight, for sure. I couldn’t agree more. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • What can you say about Fia but ‘wow’. She literally carried people by the hand over to this site. She writes some serious erotica too. A ton of energy and insight. She has a vision. And of course, she inspired a poem from me.

      xoxo

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Meg. So glad you enjoyed the interview my friend. Fia, is amazing. She can throw down in the erotica realm, no doubt about it. She’s a gifted writer and can do anything she puts her mind to, she’s been a big supporter of my work. She talked me into doing Backstage on YouTube, because she believed I could carry it. Then she was my biggest supporter of starting, SpotLight. I had come to DUP, after ending my songwriting partnership and friendship with, Joey G. A year and a half sober, and a month back into picking up the pen again. I was unsure of everything as a writer, I was a shell of myself. These seven interviews are important because the people I interviewed played a major role in where I am now. And I’m eternally grateful to them. But, Fia, had to be the first interview. Then she gave us a new home, she’s definitely cool. Appreciate you.

        Damian

    • That’s some deep revelation, Damian. I’m so glad you’re hitting the high notes. Sounds like you crawled out of a dark corner not long ago. Congratulations on your year and a half. That’s really impressive and I mean it. I see alcoholics every day. Few of them kick it, particularly on their own. I think you are a super impressive guy.

      Meg
      xoxoxo

      • Thank you. It’s been close to three years now. When I first arrived at DU it was a year and a half sober. So I’m thinking it’s sticking this time. While I knock on wood. I’m superstitious sometimes. lol. Appreciate you.

        Damian
