hello dearest poet to me this reads like a woman or a man who didn’t take a chance on their love even though they weren’t happy in their situation I really felt this one ❤️

I am thankful for your interpretation. In truth, I am not sure what it’s about myself. It could mean so many things as to what I was experiencing at that time. Maybe you are on to something in my subconscious. This just came to me within 5 minutes and I quickly wrote it down. When it was over I just stared at it wondering where in the world it came from. Thank you for reading it.

Vultures get a negative reputation but they actually clean the bones of rotting flesh. This piece makes my mind spin with possibility. Who is the vulture? Who is rotting? There’s layers in this and I love me some layers!

This piece is actually maybe 10 years old. Been sitting in my notebook. I mentioned above it took me 5 or 10 minutes to write and when it was over I was baffled as to where it came from. Maybe I had a few things on my mind that night. That would explain the layers. Glad you like them!

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Fia. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I love those lines as well, the vault has many layers indeed, but some are also incomplete or rough drafts, or will never see the light of day. lol. Appreciate you, cuz.

This smacks so hard of facing down the demons. It’s funny how bluffing can actually lead to the footing we need. There’s no retreat in this one. Just solid, bite me attitude…even as a bluff it carries the sting. The mistakes we make are lessons for farther down the road. It’s best not to forget their making, but their purpose is actually healing. If we let it. Powerful piece, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. The familiar sting always lingers beneath the surface, it’s a reminder to not forget the past but learn from it. Your analysis is spot on as usual, it must be the kindred spirt effect. I got the memo, I brought the hot chocolate to go with marshmallows, the bonfire awaits us. Appreciate you.

Excellent write up. That last line sets the reader up perfectly to loop back to the beginning and read this again. The cycle to start this over again gels perfectly with the cycle of the struggle you writ about. Deep stuff and worth every read one gives it.

This is quite a spiritual and mystical piece.
It reveals the darker side of nature. Vultures are not cute, that’s for sure.
Some heaviness throughout, but very engaging to the reader.
I quietly enjoyed this. x
