Regarding the above: Involved in a tour of a morgue once. In passing the mortuary fridge room, noted on door some wag had marked:
“Rooms available: Cool in summer, Quiet Neighbors”

Close Shaves and Final Cuts

Neville. Now this is something that I hadn’t thought about. Since you have brought it up though, I want a straight razor shave and that it’s the most satisfying. I like the ending of this point maybe if I pretend to be dead I can get a free shave

They used to put a mirror close to the nose just to check but a razor check would be good too!

KP knew I wanted to end it all with a razor, but she has bought me a battery-operated one without batteries. Doh! She insists I must stay to support her with money for botox. lol.

Argh! This spins a great yarn of the high seas, matey! Except, in reality, it’s not really a yarn is it? I have had myself a Shanty before, though I no longer drink. Salty indeed! Well done, friend! 🌹👏

Oh, captures the rough-and-tumble life of sailors, bold and unapologetic language that reflects the sailors\' free-spirited and often reckless nature - it\'s a pirate\'s life for me!.

Salty indeed. A poem of ship set sale and a sailors tail. As salty and sensual sexual if you would. I could see the Port towns sailors and felt there language in this poem. Wordplay is wonderful, but not as good as foreplay.

Haunting and gets better with each read. It reads with melancholy and although as light as ashes it contains a darkness. I look too deep at times but couldn\'t help but wonder if there was meaning in the alliteration of three g\'s gulls gargoiyles and girls and the three g\'s of Masonry, A wonderful write Neville

Oh so deeply melancholic, of masks, isolation and most strikingly of inherited struggles. A superbly touching exploration of grief and deep personal loss. I salute the strength and the engagement of these that we carry hidden within us.

Unreasonable Logic
Cheeky Missy said:
Funny. Posted on my 50th birthday with the 1st stanza haunting me ever since I read it because it seemed to be my beloved late father\'s sentiment, and yet I saw him weep in losing my mother. Since they agreed among themselves [Mum and my oldest brothers] that I was the other pea in the pod to him, being remarkably similar excepting in sex, I wonder.
Rendered in characteristic style, yet hitting too close to home, tis beautifully rendered with great imagery and a very haunting poignancy.

Your \"...daughter, Dave, who--\" must surely feel kinship with Ryan [Reynolds] and Blake [Lively/Reynolds]\' daughter James, and the host of other misnamed girls....and you blame the drinking water. Hmm. Is your \"skirt\" a kilt? Either way, delightfully rendered in excellent good humor with sparkling imagery. Thank you for sharing. [To think I\'m still disgusted with my dad\'s sister who named my cousin, my female cousin, Bronte, twenty years ago, like that was acceptable.]

I sniff something satirical about this piece, just like you might encounter another alliterative affirmation acknowledging the unquestionable quality of this wonderful work. Well done, friend. 👏 Now, I am going to my male-exclusive bathroom at home…which my wife tells me is the tree in the woods behind the house. 😂
