    Souls Speak

    Aticus Abbey has conducted ssveral interviews with Starsrite poets and poetesses, and this way introduced them to our community, allowing us to learn more about the people we share the same passion for writing with. This was a valuable...

    • Thank you, Elke. It’s not often that I speak of my privacy and I couldn’t care less how some perceive me. I am what I am, hitched to a higher being.

      • It was an honor. Your writings reveal a subtle person with a great sense of humor and mastership of metaphors and imagery. In this interview you add your integrity and principled side. Again, thank you very much!

    • I have two books by David McCullough I’m reading now so I’m glad to see he said that. I’ve been a musician for over fifty years and started when I was very young. If I couldn’t write (which for the most part I can’t anyway lol) I’d be hitting a drum or playing guitar.

      You did a good interview here, Elke. Nice job.

      • Thank you very much for reading and commenting, Tim! Your musical career sounds very interesting, especially because my own experience in music is pretty poor, besides torturing the violin for some years. Watch out! Maybe you’re the next one i’ll torment with questions…

    • It’s interesting to get a glimpse of the authors behind their words. And, perhaps we find a few things in common that we didn’t predict prior, like their personal beliefs, even.
      After all, we are not generic souls hashing out the same results. Diversity is strength, even when the tastes are not always agreeable.
      Good job, Sappho!

      • Thank you so much, dear Styx, i agree to you absolutely. It’s always enriching to get to know other people and their opinions and beliefs. Open mindedness and tolerance are values we can cultivate by experience.

    • Amazing interview, Elke. Adagio is a great writer it was interesting to learn more about him. Appreciate you both.

    • I like that he was being interviewed instead of the other way around. Good job

    • Hoi hoi chère S., and chèr A.,
      This is the 4th time I came back to the scene of the Rhyme, to be submerged in this ocean of beauty.
      I’m no hero with alcohol, so I Raise my glass of chilled freshly squeezed orange juice.

      Cheers to the interviewer; cheers to the interviewee!

      This one is a solid proof of what Roger McGough said:
      Keep it simple
      Let’s not take ourselves too seriously
      And (this one I love the best):
      All this talent is fine, but bring your empathy

      Alive and gigging – as far as I know he still performs – 88 years old.

      This interview floored me with a deeply felt (or feld) human touch questioning. As well as simple but bulls eye answers.
      Raise the flag and sound the trumpet.
      I wave extra warmly to Sappho and to Atticus

    They're all Fucking Sick

    I could murder you on 5th avenue piss on your decrepit body wondering how you felt those last moments of breath perhaps scared yet unaware of how I saved you from years of despair because nothing can compare forcing someone to live working them till their bones...

    • Nery intimidating piece. You can feel the subtle threat in the words woven here

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • Outstanding write Nick. Nicely done!

    • This is an excellent socially critic writing. Especially the perspective it is written from speaks louder than a thousand words. It reflects exactly what we are to the people in power: nothing but in significant bugs. Great work my friend!

    • You started this brilliant piece with an almost verbatim quote from the colostomy bag in chief and then proceeded to emphasize how he and those who follow his cult think and feel. Very powerful

    • Wow, harsh as fuck!

      I’m a bit mind-blown and inspired at the same time.

      You have a very crystal edge. x

    Sins

    life is strange you could be close to someone then they'll become something else morphing into some kind of prick instead of Superman they're Super Hypocrite pushing their bullshit thinking I should conform but I still believe I only answer to me might be a bit old school but you...

    • Unapologetically penned, Nick. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • The idea of angels vs devils is intriguing. Brings to home the truth, we are all a balance of light and dark. Just depends on which side we swing further into at any given time. Apathy is a thing I simply cannot condone. It’s a passive agreement to side with dark. Just boldly side and be honest, in my opinion. I know people like you describe up there. Aggravating
