so much raw emotionality
\'seething\', yet \'deflated\'
that\'s the mindset
your poetic voice captured..
to me at least, dear Poet
a relatable read, thank you
(I just hope it\'s fiction)

Hilarious poem! Might be a good idea to buy real estate in Mars - there\'s increasing transport to space, from Bezos and Musk and Branson. Not sure about Uber.

Your story telling is amazing! What can I say, you capture me from beginning to end, and when it\'s over I wish there were more.

Wow, talk about a journey through words. I mean I love how you tie in the conversational style with the oddity that is your amazing writing. The line \"What, who the hell’s building it, the seven dwarfs.
It’s on the planet Mars.\" really got a kick out of me. I love your humurous tone!

\'I should have married Geoffrey, he lives in a big house, and he’s sane.
He’s also gay.
I don’t care, I would have straightened him.
You really can be melodramatic at times.
Melodramatic, that’s it, you’re so dumped.
Right then, I’m going.
Great, if you hurry, you’ll catch the 65 doing the planet\'s run.
Phone rings, It’s mummy.
Hi honey, how you doing.
Terrible mum, I’ve just thrown Paul out.
You should have done it years ago, the boys, a moron.
I know, I’ll not tell you what he did.
Knowing him, it’ll be something spectacular, have you seen the news.
No, I’m depressed enough.
You wouldn’t believe this, that estate agent up the high st was selling plots of land on Mars, they were going like hot cakes, they sold out in minutes.
That\'s why I threw him out mum, the idiot bought one.


Oh darling, get him back, they tripled in price after ten minutes, they were saying they could be worth a million pounds in ten years time.
What, are you sure.
Yes, check the news.
Phone call to you know who.
Hi Paul where are you, sorry about throwing a wobbler, you sort of caught me on the hop.
Geoffrey’s putting me up.
What, did anybody see you going in.
Why.
You know why.
I don’t know why.\'
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can\'t breath, help!
\'you know why!!!!\'
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wow Paul. That line, \"Cut you with those razor eyes of beauty.\" I love this poem. We\'re all searching for love and it kinda seems like it slips through our hands every time. You\'ve crafted this finely.

The Jesus Girl
L. B. Mek said:

\"The true Soldier fights
not because he hates
what is in front of him, but
because he loves
what is behind him.\"
G. K. Chesterton
(yet still, that added weight
of a life, taken - stolen
even in the name of loved ones
those, \'True\' soldiers
carry back, with them
after surviving, hell on earth..
is deceptive in its capacity
to poison, the very love
they fought to protect..
alas
it takes, someone with immense
empathy and humility
to patiently, soak their fingers
with tears of sincerity
and unfurl
those clotted
\'nightmares, as relived thoughts\'
and wrangled hair knots
from despair\'s, gaping abyss
of freefall, defeat..
it takes someone, whose cultivated
their own faith
into a fishing rode, of unwavering belief
in goodness, prevailing
over
the abundant atrocities, of life..)
simply Brilliant, dear Poet

Doc Drake
Rozina said:

Your stories are simply amazing, so funny, yet many truths in the lines. By the way I just read \'The Other People\' and the hero was just about to jump and kill himself when a man suddenly appeared and pointed a gun at him and said \"Jump or I\'ll shoot you!\" Of course he didn\'t and was saved by this encounter. And eventually a happy ending in the book.

Did this Doc have a situation comedy somewhere, if not he should have. As always, lots of fun and a rib tickler.

L. B. Mek said:

yeah...
the term \'dickhead\'s\', fits
some of us men, on so many levels
lol
(I like how this genuinely
reads like the backstory
to a start-up business..
its funny, but
on some levels
completely tangible, as well
including Jenny\'s\'
executive decision...)
just so much fun
got me grinning, on my way
to a sun kissed
long, bank holiday weekend..
thank you, dear Poet
