The Straight Lesbian
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, what a fun read. The chemistry between the two voices is what really sells it...they\'re sharp, comfortable with one another, and completely unafraid to lean into the absurd. The humor never feels forced because it grows naturally out of the conversation. Brilliantly done, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Paul...this hit me hard. The turn caught me completely off guard, and suddenly every question before it carried a different weight. Heartbreaking piece, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Not sure why you are such a rebel of political correctness 🀣 I can see the fairies the tea and all. I\'m phoning you a doctor. The heats gone to your head.

\"Clean your headstone\" was a piece of detail I could have done without... No room for redemption or resolution after that.

For too many folks life don\'t half grind \'em down....

well written. Your poem revolves around the emotional distance in relationships, the passage of time, and the importance of making time for meaningful connections before it’s too late.

A poem that starts out amorous then takes a dark turn. It is a poem of reflection on a past and how one should take advantage while there is time. Well done Paul

The Grey Lady
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, this really moved me. The haunting atmosphere, the recurring refrain, and the image of walking through the night create a piece that feels both mysterious and reflective. It lingered with me long after the final line. Wonderful write, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Totally out of my depth, Paul - which doesn\'t mean I\'m passing judgement on it, just providing a click !

Paul I like the hook to this poem in the night all cats are gray. The metaphoric meaning of this is immense. Nicely done

Countdown Time
Thomas W Case said:

Domestic warfare with cornflakes and bruised egos, both of them swinging words like chipped mugs in a kitchen that’s seen too much morning.
Under the bite there’s a crooked kind of love, still standing there making coffee while the madness rattles the cupboards.

Countdown Time
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, what I enjoyed most here is the pacing. The dialogue moves so naturally, and each new revelation somehow manages to top the one before it. By the time the swingers party enters the conversation, the whole thing has become gloriously unhinged. I was laughing all the way through this one, my friend. Great job! πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

A twisted tale of humor knotted tight one tangle upon another of a nutty couple that are somehow endearing. Well done Paul this one is a fave

The Song
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, I\'ve known what it\'s like to have certain thoughts or memories replay themselves endlessly, refusing to stay quiet. Reading this brought that feeling back to me immediately. A haunting piece, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

The Song
Friendship said:

Well done. Your poem explores themes of mental turmoil, the struggle with self-control, and the concept of fate. It presents a narrative of a person facing a dire emotional and psychological crisis, grappling with thoughts of violence and self-destruction.

The Song

I love the effect of the repeating lines in this style that seems to have grown quite popular lately. It leaves a somber and heavy feeling. Nicely done Paul

Death Tunes
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, this speaks to me. I\'ve found that grief rarely moves in a straight line. One moment you\'re remembering with a smile, and the next you\'re looking back hoping for one more sign, one more conversation, one more moment. Thank you for sharing this, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

The crying in the night seems the grief of loss with the darkness symbolizing absence. Well written Paul it calls out to the living. Well done

Friendship said:

Your poem explores themes of grief, loss, and the process of mourning. It highlights the emotional turmoil that accompanies the death of a loved one and the quiet reflection that often occurs during nighttime, a time associated with solitude and introspection.

Nowhere Man
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, this is one heck of a poem. The rhythm carries it forward beautifully, and the portrait of the nowhere man remains intriguingly out of focus throughout. The more you learn about him, the less certain he seems to become...which feels exactly right for a character like this. Excellent write, my friend. πŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

Nowhere Man
sorenbarrett said:

Paul the title reminded me of the Beatles song with the same title. Nicely written is speaks of what appears to be a person but with rereading may be metaphoric for something other than human. He may be nothing more than an archetype that exists in us all. Well done my friend

Mr McIntosh
Tristan Robert Lange said:

Paul, what a fun read! πŸ˜„ Every time I thought I knew where this was headed, you sent the story off in a different direction. I will admit one disappointment, however...I spent the entire piece hoping Mr. McIntosh would meet Granny Smith. Alas, some stories end in tragedy. 🀣 πŸŽπŸŒΉπŸ–€πŸ™πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦β€β¬›

An engaging story where the interest is in the interaction and play back and forth between the characters. Well written
