Has the capability for rendering a YouTube link in a story been disabled? I had three Lyric responses for poetry that have accompanying music and the YouTube links there will no longer render. If this is by design then I will be happy to relink as a href text link. Thanks

Let me be real with you (Refrain) Something I've never felt before This could be the last time So I'm gonna have a good time And that's one thing I know for sure (Chorus) Got Nothing To Lose Being honest with you (X) And that's one thing I know for sure (Refrain) (Chorus) I've tried to be cool with you I'd be a fool to ever fool with you (Refrain)

Ahhhh Billy! My Hero!

Goouud! Release your ANGER! Give in to your hatred! It gives you power! It brings you focus! It makes you STRONGER!

Awwwwwwwwww! I could just eat Ariel with a spoon! What a sweetheart!! I'm in love! Thanks for the Happy update, Comsie!

Brandon isn't a little biased. Brandon is studying to be a lawyer and he only likes to speak the truth (ok, so he still has a LOT to learn. )! Billy Chase is the sexiest most beautiful boy in school if not the world! That's a fact! As for Bobby . . . Well, it's funny how a person can poison themselves when trying to poison someone else. Liars and betrayers are often the first to feel lied to and betrayed. Bobby needs to learn a thing or two.

I can't milk my poets organ enough to come up with 30 in a year, much less a month. Butt That said, not even knowing it was poetry month, I did manage to crank out three songs. I found three pieces of instrumental music I liked that I attached to the Brandon Smiling project and wrote lyrics for them. They really don't make much sense if one doesn't hear them with the music so I included a link to the music for each piece too. I'd sing these songs but I don't want to break your ear phones.

(Oh, NO! The key in the door! Your Mom’s home! Oh God no, what are we to do? She’s found us out!) I don't know what’s really happening I wish that I did but I just don't To me this is really frightening It's so true and I wish it wasn’t Now these Tears have just started falling I can't stop and they keep coming I can't hold them ba-ck Even though I'm trying Can't you see we've just been discovered Secrets we tried to keep well cover

Since I use an IPad with a legacy IOS version I just use a text editor called Daedalus to write and organize. I use old style line based 'formatting' like caps and ** to make emphasis. This used to drive my editors nuts, but it is due to my inability to do formatting with my app. It takes too long to reformat in the web site's text editor since it isn't friendly to Safari on IPad for that purpose. But I don't really care about that. Even though I'm a graphics designer by trade I don't fuss with it on here. I am sad to lose the ability to determine my own font size however. The A+ Function doesn't always work for me and I like to make my text a bit bigger for easy reading. I have trouble in that department so I am sympathetic to older eyes. I like most everything else about the new site framework. Good job to Myr and the team for implementing it.

Another song I wrote for Book 9. Everything: https://www.gayauthors.org/story/mrm/MPoetry/14

I Was All Alone A Complete Unknown Hidden Timidly In a Library Lonely Invisibly Reluctantly Eternally (x4) Then I felt something That got me looking Which got me seeing And then believing By Trusting and Accepting Letting In And Letting Go That by not trying And by not looking And by not seeking I'd fi—nd . . . Everything! I Found Everything! (x3) I Found Everything Everything Everything Everything Everything Everything Everything Everything (x2)

Another Brandon and Billy centered poem. This one is song lyrics for a piece that just sort of fit Billy Chase Book 9 perfectly! I like to think of the two of them in their 40s sitting at a Starbucks reminiscing . . . Sort of like I do now. https://www.gayauthors.org/story/mrm/MPoetry/13

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do you remember When we were young A certain shopping center Where we could have so such fun . . . In our Arcade Summer! In an Arcade Summer! In our Arcade Summer! We were alive in our Arcade Summer We were in love in our Arcade Summer Life was so simple in an Arcade Summer Love was so perfect in an Arcade Summer And the cruel school year was so far away And all our best friends would co

I'm glad you are enjoying it. This is a labor of love.

Yes, well, squid can 'taste' with their tentacles. It's a weird sense they have. Alexis must have tasted familiar. A bit of clarification, the dream sequence with Morpheus is important. You see, the exchange between Nerites, Alexis, and the Kraken were all going on in real time. It wasn't exactly a dream, but a 'touch' between minds that Morpheus afforded. At the point the Kraken takes Nerites' hand Alexis' whereabouts became known. A showdown is in the works! Stay tuned and thanks for reading!

I'm nearly halfway through my little Odyssey inspired Greek Myth story, The Seashell. For those not familiar with the work I have attempted to resurrect an old Greek Myth that really never had an interesting outcome, per my tastes. It is a minor myth not much known, but one I always liked. So, if anyone is interested in this work and would like to comment or ask questions about it here, I'd be happy to respond. So, without further adieu I present The Seashell! https://www.gayauthors.org/story/mrm/theseashell/ For your further delectation I also will include here my musical outline for the story performed by Brothertiger (who inspired the story) and Brian Eno and Harold Budd:

Six weeks out and still we have yet to fill the freezers even a quarter full. The fish are gone. It is like they have been scared away by something. My Papa showed me how to use the fish finder last week and when I told him I saw nothing he thought I was not working it correctly or that I wasn't working hard enough. The thing does not require that much work! Why should I not use it to its fullest? I like twiddling with machines anyway. It beats swabbing the deck down. We had given up o

Well, me and my friend Jon were playing in my big back yard. I was about 11 and he was about 12. I'd only had my first orgasm a couple of months before so I was fascinated by the whole thing, naturally. So, I've always been what I am, so when he suggested we play Han Solo and Princess Leia together I naturally took Leia's part. We played 'house' for a while and then it came time to go to 'bed'. 'Bed' was a little spread we had over some leaves in under our chinese elms. Beautiful trees by the way . . . Anyways, so we proceeded to do husband and wife things with him on top (fully clothed). Well, of course, when things started to get effing HAWT that's when my frigging psychic mother called me in. She didn't like that things had gone so 'quiet' outside. And . . . such was the summer of 1982.

I think she got her rapier wit from her father . . .

I dunno. She kind of fits right in . . . except for the hunting blaster.

In the line of the Carpenters I found this new band called 'Germans' and this absolutely gorgeous song. It sounds very 'Carpentery' This band is so deserving of exposure! This song is beautiful! I included it on one of my book soundtracks as it fits so well. Thanks Spotify!

Ahhhh, Karen . . .
