There’s a damn wild collision of biology, petroleum, ancestry, and cosmic insignificance here, and somehow it all circles back to the simple fact of existence. “We are all tubers / of the same mycelium” is a killer image, while that final “We exist!” feels like a fist raised against the void.

Ostensibly a lesson (not to be ignored) on the nature of mushrooms, this opens out as, for me, valid commentary on the nature of humanity, my existence and in passing my consciousness.
Thanks for the richness of the analogy, Syd

Syd, what a wonderfully strange existential ride. This moves through ancestry, ego, absurdity, and cosmic insignificance before arriving at a fierce affirmation. Brilliant piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

What I admire most is the intelligence of your minds thoughts. So clever and a hint of humour and so much positivity with a fabulous message that actually makes me smile today, especially as I\'m sitting on a beach watching those on super yachts. Love your mind dear Syd, in the end we are all just oranges and lemons 🌹 💜

Nicely composed from a view that I too hold. We are all part of a whole that forms the universe. Well articulated and with images and metaphor easily digested it tells its story well. Loved it

Lesbian Honey
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Syd, this is such a charming celebration of neighborly generosity. One thoughtful gesture produces another, and the honey becomes a perfect symbol for the warmth exchanged between people...sweet in every sense, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Thomas W Case said:
This is a warm, goofy little poem about neighborly kindness, with the “lesbian honey” payoff giving it a damn playful twist. I like that the whole thing stays affectionate rather than preachy—the gift goes both ways, and everyone ends up with something sweet.

I would say you\'ve hit the jackpot.
Honey is the nectar of the gods.
A and B, it seems to me are a dream come true.

Funny how we take certain aspects of a person and judge them by it. What I consider none of my business becomes an issue of discrimination. People are people and we all are different but somehow the same. Well written

Syd, this is powerful and unsettling. The environmental heat and the social heat keep feeding each other until the whole country feels ready to ignite. Strong piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

A sociopolitical commentary tied to climate and disaster nicely woven together this piece set in good rhyme is well worked.

The magnifying glass is worth ten years now, maybe two with good behavior, overcrowding etc.
Felt sorry for the Prof, they hounded the guy. I mean, who doesn\'t plager.
Snowing in London, that\'s extreme.

Syd, what a gloriously fucked-up ride this is! 😂 Dark, grotesque, funny, and somehow it winds its way toward redemption without losing any of its lunacy. And I LOVE THE FUCKING SONG! One hell of a write, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

Just wait till AI really gets going. If you think it\'s bad now, you aint seen nothing yet.

My friend, satire is at its strongest when it commits to its voice, and this certainly does. I found myself chuckling more than once, even while feeling the exasperation underneath it all. Great job on this. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Semi automatic click on the title (too early in the morning), picture pops up – what?? Who?? It’s Syd, so I can enjoy (if that’s the right word) your take down.
Trouble is, it should be easy to pull the plug on them (there are enough delusional nutters in the world anyway), the problem, as you so rightly point out, happens to be the number of clowns (men) who take notice…

The images of decay and predation really caught me, Syd. They perfectly capture how this poisonous ideology consumes insecurity and converts it into hatred. Savage write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Plenty of Tates and Andrews in this world I\'m afraid, many of whom hide their bigotry etc in all manner of ways and justifications....the sub humans who follow them, just for starters.
Worthwhile write Syd, at the time of their arrest and disgrace even if it does leave me somewhat nauseous.
