The cursor blinks
as the last whisky drip
from the final bottle on
highway ‘where do we go from here’
Our saviour turns
wine into words
and we all drink, be merry,
fucked on verb and vowel aperitif
the last supper is merely a dot.com away
Your love for each other inspires
and it’s the colour of snipers’ guns
pull the trigger and just fire
who said blood is always red?
There was once a poetry site –
nursery rhyme of crime beyond time –
still-born hospital which housed comas
in a thousand commas, awake, sleep can wait
and your invitation to each other
was the ghost in a sacrosanct envelope
Opened, the postman blushed
never to sail the ship alone
HMS Poems are the bridal veil
and this is the greatest poem you will ever write
This is so sweet I am sure they are going to love this.
Hahaha. This is brilliant my friend.
Where would we be without being inspired!
It just feels so good when we catch it, you know, that special feeling to grab our pens like wands and connect it to paper.
This write has my brain firing on all cylinders amigo!
Thanks for the blood/love rush!
I am honored:)
And Honoria is one of my favorite human beings.
You have me in great company!
Dear R,
I enjoyed the edginess of this write and the spotlight on two fabulously lovely people who’ve supported all of us in kindness and encouragement. Fourth stanza was very reminiscent of the previous site and watching A and S grow their love. Truly wonderful write of love. While I’m quite sure I’ve done nothing with the regard to the inspiration of this piece to get written, I’m happy to kick anyone’s back side if it gets them to writing! Beautiful poem.😘 H🌷
Dude, I’m at a loss with what to say. Yes, that happens. Lol
As I said the other day, I have an online friend for over 25 years now, because of creative writing. We all may write alone, but we revel in it in little groups.
Saturday I went day-drinking at the VFW with some other veterans. It’s been awhile and they let me know that I was missed.
An online site has much the same sentiment. it lets you know that you do matter, even a little bit. So thank you, Rob. It’s mutual.
Who knew back then that me and that punk Del would become a couple! LOL (yes, we call each other punk a lot).
A side bonus of it all is that we both got to see how “real” the other was. No fake persona, no BS. We are what we write.
I do try to be sincere and I suppose Del is validation of that.
Happy New Year, Rob. ’26 is an open world of opportunity. Snatch it by it’s hair! lol
