Fake Nudes
I want to be ten stone twelve pounds
again naked
with my old oud and my bandages on ..

We all want to turn the clock back. A fun read my friend gives me nostalgia
Thanks for feeling it my way my friend .. Neville
Used to work out for year lifting free weights got up to benching 325 lbs now I'd be lucky to bench 35. Your most welcome Neville
Neville, this is raw and striking…brief but full of longing, memory, and vulnerability. Powerful in its sparseness. A wonderful write! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Many thanks Tristan 😎🐈⬛🐈⬛🐦⬛🐦⬛👍
You are most welcome, my friend!
Well aren't you a riot! Lemme see, with thy bandages on thou shalt look like the mummy from Dracula or the like, or correct me. I'll just hafta watch one of my all time favorite flicks The Wedding Date and imagine you're my beloved Dermot Mulroney, how's that? Excellently rendered with a tasteful smidgen of imagery, is that? and a tantalizing poignancy. Charming. Thank you for sharing.
Such positivity is not to be sniffed at .. unlike the Old Oud which must surely be the best fragrance in the entire world .. for men that is .. bless ya Missy
'Tell ya what - I'll supply the bandages, and if you could send over that almost finished bottle of oud by express post for me to sniff, I'll do the best I can.....
Let me have your precise coordinates and I shall see what I can do .. just one thing tho' would the tiniest of glass bottles make it .. baring in mind the stuff that is not permitted into Oz .. am happy to give it a try .. or maybe a liberally doused tissue sealed in a cellophane baglet .. Your call ..
Jeez thanks, they do sell that stuff in Oz, but at them prices...man's gotta eat as well...
I'm still happy to give it a try if you trust me with your details ..
Neville, I have to be truthful and tell you that this has nothing to do in this instance with trust. However I've recently had a protracted encounter with a company pushing perfumes, and although I eventually got my money back (they initially had no idea who they were dealing with), I'm over the whole thing and intend to stay smelly for a while. My partner (she who pushed me in that general direction) may not be pleased, but we all have to cope with the vicissitudes presented to us by this imperfect world in the best way we can.....
............................... Okay I understand .. 👍
Might do a rhymer on that one... forewarned is.....
I think many of us would like to be a few pounds lighter as we reflect on the passing of time and the wear and tear we suffer with every day living. But hey if you are wearing oud, that is unmistakeable and is quite intoxicating. The fragrance drew me in. Hope all is improving in your world Neville. Have a great Wednesday.
I am seriously thrilled that you visited my little scribble Cassie thank you for that .. I am also delighted that you are familiar with the way I smell on a good day .. I am at last beginning to have a few more of them and although I am in it for the long haul, I remain focussed and believe I am getting somewhere albeit slower than I would have preferred .. I sincerely hope your world is being kind to you & the sun is smiling down on you this Wednesday ..
Kindest Regards and All Goodest of Things, Neville
I used to lift Weights when younger.
Never forget the Sweat, Strain, Aches, Pulled Muscles. But eventually got them out the Box.
Good Write.
Cheers Kevin .. better out than in eh' as they say around some parts .. Neville
A fine write, Neville. I can relate. Can I add a full head of hair to my wish list please? 🙂 Nicely done. Cheers.
Bless all your follicles Tom .. 😎👍
The truth doesn't need many words, how comfortably can decay us quicker. At least we smell nice.
Nicely done mate
Phew .. cheers Dan .. 😎👍
why ? stay happy as you are...
