Jimmy The Bully Man
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Yesss! I love the fire in your childhood self and this describes a real life scene I was invovled in where I had to stand up to a bully. The result, the same...not the same exact action, mine a punch to the face...but the laying on the ground and not feeling so big and tough...yup. And bully no longer bullied me anymore. Only that particular one stopped, of course, and there were times I lost and/or was beat up by groups of kids. But in that one instance, I moved like a butterfly and stung like a bee. Well done on this, Nataiella. Thank you for posting this throwback and for its message. A fave from me.

Standing up to a bully is more important than winning but winning helps. A good write my friend.

The Voices Have Gone
Cheeky Missy said:
There\'s a subtle note of humor which I suppose is called sarcasm, but I prefer the chuckle you gave me. Fascinating reality delineated. Perhaps you\'d like my tinnitus for style? It drives me and has long, long driven me to keep music and other recordings perpetually in the background to distract me from the constant tinny whine. Gorgeously rendered with excellent imagery and a fitly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Those demons are thoughts that you have when you worry about things, sometime you come to a place where you have no worries and then you worry about having no worries. Life is strange but we can all move on in the knowledge that life will be good and waiting for us all to enjoy.
Fine words Tobani.

Wow. Profound, vulnerable, raw, honest...and wise. Of course, coming from the author of the \"Wise Man Say\" series, that is not a surprise. Indeed. I believe we all hear voices...though not in the sense you are presenting here. Still, I can relate to this in a lot of ways. Truthfully, that is the hard thing about psych meds, whether it be for depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, or whatever, there\'s piece of \"you\" that goes away with the struggle or the \"voices\" or whatever is being \"treated.\" Some drugs more than others, but that is why it is so challenging for a lot of people to stay on their medication. I have found myself there in that struggle. Well done on this, my friend. A much needed write, Nataiella. Thank you for sharing! 🖤🕯️🧠🌫️🤍

When we grow accustomed to something no matter what we miss it. A most interesting poem of defining what is normal as opposed to what is good. And then we must ask good for who. Nicely done Tobani

I do know of these voices but I rarely hear them any longer. Other sounds seem to have taken more importance of late 🙏🏻🕊️

Sardonic wit, sharp humor, a foot to a jerk\'s ass..whatever you want to call this...it is masterfully brilliant in it\'s brevity, my friend. LOVE THIS! 🌹🙏 If I ever say this to anyone in real time, you will be cited! 🤣 \"Wise man Tobani says...\" or something to that effect! Again, brilliant!

Forsooth, good Sir. Begins to remind me of my late father\'s injunction to, \"enjoy the ride! The journey is half the fun of getting there...\" whether or not that is applicable. Beautifully rendered with a delightfully haunting poignancy. Thank go for sharing.

Hahaha, you\'re hilarious! Me still is uncertain about that, though, since methinks I\'ve put in a ton more than I\'ve recieved from the effort, however I\'m not dead as yet, so who knows. Delightful and sweetly rendered with a waltzing poignancy. Thank you for sharing! I love it.
