Trapped
orchidee said:

OOhh, I\'m all faint now. I\'ve heard some horror stories. \'Cutting up\' happens, but I would rather cut up a joint of meat.
I\'m all of a shudder now. I hate the theme really - hate hearing details, that is.
A cry for help? Yet desperately so.

Ouch! It is truly tragic to hear of young people self harming for whatever reason. I have to admit that i cannot get my head around understanding the phenomenon.

A really powerful, punchy and disturbing piece from you today Neville.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks NEVILLE ! A very evocative title and a Perfect Pome ! This week Brother Boris has been touring the Hospitals and telling the Staff & Residents all they need is WARM BUTTERED TOAST ! Personally its a throwback to traditional fare in Public Schools & Oxford Colleges ~ and a bid to save the NHS 95% of its Catering Bill ! However I agree with him *Hot Buttered Toast* is indeed *CIBUS DEI !* TOAST without LOVE is just scorched bread ! Toast is a Generational thing ! WAGS make Toast ~ Mums make BETTER Toast ~ Grannies make the BEST Toast ~ AMEN.

Blessings & Peace & Granny Toast
Yours ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡

Neville,

A good feeling write wrapped with love!

The first two stanzas remind me of my great grandparents...
...and the last one of my maternal grandmother...
love and warmth...
my security blanket!

A toast in a country bar always takes me back.
Seldom does the landlord let me back.

A lovely write N.
Meanwhile - Doh! I was in the wrong field. All I smelt was manure wafting across on the breeze. heehee.
Just a fun thing - nothing deep or psychological to read into this, compared to your \'field\'.

Suresh said:

Dear N
Please accept my deepest sympathies on your very personal loss. My mother passed away last year.
May your words be a true reflection of your mother, Mary\'s, resting place, and her star shine be the brightest, as she lives on, on the heavenly stage.

My Chest it Flutters
Fay Slimm. said:

A fluttering chest and a heart that dances could be time to see the Doc. but knowing why it is again happening shows a love that does not give up - a delicately worded verse of time flying and thanks for the read dear ageless friend..........

I can\'t hold a candle to this kind of verse sir!

Though i did have concerns over your hitherto masked menopausal transsexuality until i read your author\'s comment.

Next time i pass the girls high school i shall carefully listen for juvenile coo-coo-ing.

Certainly had me scratching my smiling head today.

Over The Hill
Suresh said:

I no longer have a plot of land, thus all I can do is........
but that\'s OK too
no acre, just ache

Throughly enjoyed this one

P.S.
I was granted a wish to tweet-
In my excitement a typo error-
ache instead of acre

Well now I gotta live it- Cest la vie

Fay Slimm. said:

That acre sounds familiar my friend cos I have one of those too..........such a clever concept Nev. and writ with beguiling covert.

Indeed we should all acknowledge our allotted acre of desire and tend it with ambition.

Today we see the sage within you.

sylviasearcher said:

I started a poem like that once, it ended with a different kind of ache though

There was a longing in this one maybe?
