Tiny is often likeable and gigantic can be mind-blowing but climaxing with your inventive \"mindgasms\" made me smile. - -- Such an orgasmic ending methinks to that beguiling title mon ami................x

When Size is Not Everything
L. B. Mek said:

(yeah...
like when a misplaced, well positioned
word
is enough to wreck a honeymoon\'s fairy-tale
and curate a lifetime of nightmares...!)
I fear nothing
like the mind of a human..
not for its insidious potency
but for its capacity of haphazard ignorance
detonating, emotional weapons of mass
depression
indifferently, clumsily
then hands on lips, shrieking:
\'\'an oopsy daisy i never meant to, really...\'\'
(Brilliant!
dear Poet supreme
Brilliant!)

What an Appetite for Attention She Had
L. B. Mek said:

to be a shadow
within
a relationship
is a curse
I wouldn\'t wish upon my worst...
but wise Poet
those perpetuated
societal mechanism\'s that cultivate
such personas, truly amaze me
like how
as a child, everyone gravitates
for the cute kid
pinches cheeks, worshiping those gifted
smiling gurgles
and that kid grows-up thinking
this is reality, for everyone
forever and ever, daily
then comes the drop-off
now that child is left to swim alone
compensate for that missing attention
and here comes adulthoods trappings
and now hollywood is the mecca
for the good looking
with fck\'d up childhoods...
(still
the shattered hearts they leave in their wake
is neither forgivable or comprehensible;
my survival\'s avoidance trick
after burning me fingers on aesthetics
is to seek empathy in the eyes
of the one i dare
to entrust with my fragile heart
above intellect or anything else...)
sorry for ranting again, a great write dear Poet
so relatable

The reveal, voluntarily or otherwise, and later the resulting silent knowing, the open secret, secret still.

Liking this N and not an e\'ermore in sight! It\'s \'alway\' that\'s a problem. Don\'t publishers realise it\'s poetic, and that poetry is, erm, poetic?! It does not always have to be \'always\'.
End of waffle or guff, or rabbiting on!

The read of your poetic posting today hits a valuable truth my friend. - - Realizing the desperate need for attention in another and giving it willingly heals in measures we know little about and is a sign of true understanding in any relationship. The depth your expertise reaches in this verse Nev is outstanding and the piece is now in my list of favourites ........x

There are loves in our life that hit us this way. And we will ever rue the day.
Companionable empathy on this relatable poem. One for all of us who have thusly travelled in life. Thanks N.
