I believe I could have been an excellent astronomy professor, or astronaut that is my personal belief. Where dreamer\'s dream Hey but space is also becoming crowded dear friend. đź’–

Hat-Man!
Bella Shepard said:
I tip my cap to Hat-Man, and his beautiful Fedoras. Perhaps people feel a little threatened by someone who does not fit the common mold, or who bucks the conformity that was instilled in us from childhood. Without the nonconformists it would be a very dull, boring, colorless world. Great Write!

Gutter Words
Bella Shepard said:
There have been voices that have cried out in the past, and we haven\'t heard. There are voices that cry out in the present, and we do not hear. Somewhere along the way we lost the ability to actually listen, and perhaps, if we had we might be better off. I don\'t know where to look for consolation these days. Perhaps we all just hold hands and take a leap of faith together.

Ticket (An Acrostic)
Bella Shepard said:
So much of the knew phraseology these days is not in tune with these aged ears, and I must rely on those your age to clarify. I do however agree with you as to the state of a world where truth seems to be a relic of the past, and to trust, you must keep your guard up. Great write, keep your finger on the pulse!

Bleeding in My Room
Bella Shepard said:
Intrusive thoughts come out of nowhere, when you least expect. I find that the eyes of age have helped me gain perspective, and a touch of wisdom in understanding the difficult family relationships that plagued my younger self. I know those thoughts will pop up from time to time, it\'s inevitible. But when they do, I know who I am now, and they can\'t make me feel bad any more, I accept that they are part of me and I can go on. This is such a powerful theme dear friend, one that strikes at the heart of our vulnerabilities, such a brave and thoughtful write.

I read this and as I read I was reminded of my youth, the child of alcoholics who sometimes physically beat but more often emotionally beat down. I was reminded of the human frailty, the fact that we\'re all fallible. Due to the realizations, we can move forward either through suppression (not recommended) or through recognition. Very well written and so thought provoking!

Dear friend, another arrow to the heart. I think Putin\'s KGB background perhaps helped set the stage for who he is today. He knows only force to achieve what he wants, and if he can\'t get it, he destroys it. He will fall, as all dictators eventually do, but how many are yet to suffer from him before that happens. In the meantime his own country will continue to suffer as well. Good write!

Once again you hit on a very problematic scenario, small busines in decline. I remember, when I was young, many moons ago, we would buy from the mom & pop store on the corner. They died out when the era of the mega stores and huge shopping malls was ushered in. Now we contend with Amazon and any number of other online retailers, who keep people in their homes and on the computer to shop. It was so much nicer actually going into a store and conversing with the person behind the counter, whom you came to know , and who treated you well. We can\'t seem to get enough stuff, and get it as fast as possible. I share your lament my friend, but at least I rcan say that I remember the good old days. Very timely and very well written.

I\'m gonna sing \' Things can only get better...\' When? we may ask, or ask in some cases.
Bit like \'Now a new (so-called) comedy show on telly\'. I reply: \'Where?\' When?\' and: \'Laugh? I never even started!\' lol.
Comedy was good on telly up to, oh, about 1975 generally. Doh!

I would say that Skip Rat Pam, is quite a mam, a lady with a plan. The first verse \"Who’s that scurrying? Who’s that hurrying?
Who’s the one shaking around,
and somewhat worrying? Could have your next super hero there! Such a fun read my friend!

Football is a farce and all about money nowadays. I do not watch football, but rugby is so much more enjoyable - the Rugby Union World Cup starts on 8th September, I have watched EVERY match in last two world cups.

My dear friend, I remember when the games of sport were just that, games to be enjoyed by the masses. When Sports became an industry, and the bottom line was profit versus entertainment, it lost its gloss. I hear you and cheer you!

Last two lines - neat argument against capital punishment, worth your effort for that alone.
You stay safe too.

How such an abberation of a human being can exist is beyond comprehension. What can corrupt a mind so, that it carries out such diabolical acts? It is heart wrenching to think of all that those parents have suffered, and will live with forever. A very powerful write for a difficult subject, and so well done dear friend.

Sometimes I think we need to rework what we call the \"work ethic\". In many ways it\'s come to mean how much time you have to put in on the job, rather than the quality of work. I wish quality could trump quantity, perhaps more would get done in a shorter, smarter way, giving quality of life a more prominent role. You\'ve hit the proverbial nail on the head my friend with this poem, great write!
