    • I love abandoned buildings and urbex, places that have personality & soul. It really makes you think about all the stories and feelings that haunt those rooms long settled into stillness and the quiet noise of slow decay, so much like those old folks now mostly forgotten.

      • I am an urbex hound myself and feel much the same as you. I suppose that’s what made me follow that theme. Thank you 😊

    • Fantastic, and abandoned. Excellent.

    • Powerful work. Vivid and sharp.

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Excellent write my friend, your choice in accompaniment fit your words nicely. You have an ear for it in fact. Nicely done as always. I dig this a lot. Appreciate you.

      • Thank you, Damian. Coming from you, that means a lot. I try to hear what the words are saying. They always have a voice of their own and I guess I enjoy and connect more easily with them than with people frequently. Just gotta listen. Thank you, my friend 😊

    • Art at its best. We’re lucky to have you here Willow.

    • Now it matches you. 🙏💖

    • Willow, I hardly know what to say. It is a great honor to have something named for me. I am doubly pleased that it is a decaying old thing which — no, this is not an insult!– that it creaks, with unspoken stories and strangely unseen secrets; the wind does whistle through my cracked windows, my friend, and curiosity still burns with undying heat. another story is always waiting. Yes, you couldn’t have painted a better picture of me with a camera. Thank you for this lovely, lovely gift!

      • The stories untold are moments lost. When nobody asks, they remain locked away. My elders have been my rocks. The Roots I grew from. Without those stories, I wouldn’t be who I am today. Your young ones must feel the same of you, my friend

    • hello beautiful Willow for let me say this is a powerful message with a great flow I am also sad about these things I don’t know what the answer is…I hate how people are treated I have skin ailment and can’t even get a refferal to a dermatologist because my primary says so… I hate how animals are treated it all makes me ill… what counts as compassion in this life it’s like a very painful soul ache to look around and think how can I change it… great write ❤️

      • I actually cut myself off with this one. There were so many more things I wanted to say. But they’re not listening anyway. I’m sorry you’re dealing with insurance issues. I am as well, so I can relate. Thank you, Brenda 🧡

    • Sing it you beautiful powerful woman!!

    • This is a great screw it list touching on so many hot topics, great piece Lady

    • Now this has me agreeing with it. What happened to save the trees, polar ice caps, the aquatic life, or us, damn it?

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! Excellent write with a message that needs to be heard, which in fact should be screamed from the rafters in every corner of the world. Amazing work per usual. This is next level good. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • This one blasted out of me in one evening after unsettling personal news. I had to force myself to stop. But the release felt good. It just keeps building. They never stop. Thank you, my friend 🧡

    • Wow! What a powerful message, screamed at the whole humankind, especially at those who still believe that no damage towards the planet and our fellow humans had been done. I haven’t heard such an impressive and sadly urgently needed wake up call since a long time! Brilliant work, dear Willow!

      • I think what makes me saddest is that most of them actually know what’s being done. They just don’t care because it would affect their wallets and money is more important to them than compassion. There are a lot of us screaming, they’re not listening. They just hit mute or change the channel. Thank you, Elke 🧡

    • Superb work. Excellent.

    • FUCK YEAH! Oh, fuck fuck fuck fucking Yeah, Willow. You need a big FUCK! for all of them, Willow. But there just aren’t enough fucks for all the FUCKS in the world ’cause they keep making more FUCKS who keep fucking things up! So FUCK THOSE FUCKING FUCKS!

      Fucking right!
      nice

      aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand said with love

      • Yeah, that word has become a constant from me lately. I wrote this one after unsettling personal news and then spent the next 15 minutes just repeating fuck. What they’re doing – while it inspires some powerful poetry and protests – is beneath contemptible. They don’t stop either. I don’t believe I will live long enough to see the damage done just in this one year reversed. I’m not sure my daughter will even live to see that day. It’s unbelievable. Selfish, racist, sexist fucks. Thank you so much for feeling this as I did 🧡

    • Chère W.,
      Your list and mine are almost identical.
      At least my family didn’t tell me to shut up, but the in laws did.

      My car’s a vegan car. And many more people will follow as soon as it dawns on them that there is money to be made in doing the right things for a change.
      All my thumbs and kudos for you.

      Yes, please also listen to Sappho/Elke’s Point of no return in audio and podcasts or some such thing. You’ll find your way, don’t rely entirely on the words of a dyslect.

      Warm waives and regards, Gus

      • I wish my drafts weren’t so full of frustrated rants about the state of the world. But if I didn’t give them voice, I’d implode. It just never stops. I will definitely make my way to Elke’s piece. Thank you for your words and the nudge in her direction

    • I’m with you on every point. Someway, somehow, the good, honest, and caring of this world must overcome the evil wave that now confronts us.

      • The tide will turn. It will take a long time, but once it’s rolling, there’s no stopping it. Meanwhile, big mouth me will keep shouting from the rooftop about it. Thank you so much

    • Passionately penned, Willow. Excellent write my friend, this had a little R&B sass to it. Dig it. Nice arrangement with the rhythm section driving the vehicle as an accompaniment to these bars you’re slinging. It’s Fire!! Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Interesting you use the word sass…my nickname as a child was Sassy. Guess it never faded. Thank you, my friend 😊

    • WHOA!!! Willow, this is 100% passionate, sensual… sexy!!
      Love this line: “fire infused and filled with intention”. I swear, as I read this line, I could feel Heat spreading out from the computer screen and melted my keyboard. WTH, now I have bandaged fingertips…😎 now where did I put that fire extinguisher??!! Loved the music and singing.. I give it 100 snaps, 10 Hell Yeses, and sway the hips danceable!

      Curt

      • Well damn! That’s a lot! Much appreciated! I don’t have a fire extinguisher but Volupta routinely had me hitting the cold shower with her erotica. So I get it! Thank you, Curt 😊

    • I read this without the music, then listened to it. Both ways show the heat you were trying to convey. I love the part where you say he loves your mind. It’s a potent thing.

      • According to him, my body is banging but without my mind, it’s just anatomy. He never leaves me questioning my value in the space of us. Thank you, Fia 😊

    • A great piece of dedication and spiciness, tight one Lady

    • Full of passion and power. Tremendous work.

    • Brilliant work. Powerful.
