Each stanza an emotion and emotions come in stanzas, chapters and sometimes in just single words. The shift as rapidly as the stanzas in a poem. A wonderful write with imagery that felt so personal and intimate yet familiar. Very nicely done David

Refreshing and most brave David to hear a different definition of the overused term love. There are a million poems about it many sticky and gooey some sentimental others heroic but few if any deal with it in this manner. That is what poetry is, isn\'t it presenting the mundane in novel ways? This deserves a fave

Good write David. Someone spoke to me at a bus stop. They said \'This bus stop has been out of use for some time\'. I had been waiting there for 5 years! LOL.

I have met people like this and further she seems a metaphor for all the information asked and gleaned from vendors, internet and sold to data brokers. A fun read David

sorenbarrett said:
A most interesting point of view. From that perspective yes the strongest Love wins and does take by force resistance is futile. It does seem to be the ultimate weapon and takes by its force even the unwilling. This change in perspective redefines the common view. Thank you for showing a different perspective to this overused poetic term.

Too much negativity in the world narrows down a typical person’s thought processing. Wonder where his Lotto share went?

Poor Jimmy. He did the right thing. He would have felt even worse if she had died infront of him. He is still a hero in my book and she needs serious help. Much enjoyed story David.
