  1. You devil, indeed. You had me thinking about incubi and vampires at the end, only to fool me. Brilliant.

    Pyeongchang 2018

    I love how crafted your last line. Lots of suspense, and a truly timely story of forbidden love. This was an unusual and well written story. 10.0 from this judge.
  3. I was hanging on every word. It was an amazing plan, fantastic - and now Monroe is stricken himself with exhaustion. Otis did very well.

    Verboten

    That’s very, very well done! A great story and a wonderful finale. The instant replay from another view made this especially fascinating.

    Forbidden

    Their coach was merely a tumbril to the execution. How infinitely sad.You left my heart breaking for them.
  6. "The mass is ended. Go in peace." There was a new priest that Sunday. He pronounced the words loud and clear. Stanley almost missed the final dismissal. He'd been staring at the altar, at the pulpit, at the sanctuary, in a kind of haze, since the early mass started on the dot of seven thirty. The feeble notes of the last hymn were nearly lost in the sound of the faithful putting on coats and making an exit from Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Church. Now parishioners could go home and
  7. The early mass leaves a man reflecting on his past.

    Snow

    I love snow; it’s myriad reflected colors are the jewels of winter. And the ground calling out to snow as its protector - what a wonderful image.
  9. I am sorry to have been so slow in responding. The flu will do that. Thank you for your kind words about these. They really helped me in those weeks when they were written.
  10. Thank you so much Gary, for your kind words, and for your patience. I have fallen victim to the flu, and so much has simply gotten away from me. These poems were written over a stretch of very difficult weeks. One can put them in better perspective now. Even so, certain smells or flavors will forever be evocative. Again, my deep thanks.
  11. You swept me up in the first stanza, felt the power of truth blazing in the second; and the third and fourth leave me with questions I can only guess at for myself. Awesome.
  12. You wrote an honest and beautiful poem. Thank you for sharing it.

    For My Friend

    You wrote something quite beautiful for your friend. Your words definitely shine.
  14. Thanks Carlos, for this feature. There were some excellent questions here.

    Chapter 17

    Kohen’s feat would make news on any ship. I wonder what the Captain is thinking, knowing there is a person on board with such dangerous strength, and for whom the Captain harbors an attraction? And what if there are unfriendly members of the crew who take notice, too?
  16. Your words breathe sunlight and warmth not just to tim, but to everyone.

    Common Ground

    An interesting result on a compelling topic. These stanzas contain some very great truths. Indeed an exquisite poem.
  18. Your post here illuminates the important aspects of the relationship between Dom and sub that cannot be shown on quick porn clip. The scene you described hurts for all the wrong reasons.
  19. If we can share such a journey, perhaps its burdens become easier to bear. If any of this hurt you, I grieve. Perhaps these will become like poetic strands of memory, much like those you referred to. Thank you so much for reading these.
  20. Structured poetry distracted my mind just enough to make experience bearable. And later, made it possible to distill bits and pieces of memory’s mosaic into a new sort of picture. I am glad you connected with some of these. Thank you for reading them.
  21. Thank you, dear friend. Your encouragement has made a world of difference.
  22. Thank you, Mac. I’m really glad you liked reflections. Uttering these words aloud, and them setting them to paper helped the hurt dissipate, some. And your words are very kind, and generous. Thank you.
  23. All the sound of the world is mere noise compared to the voice of the one we want to hear. You wrote this so beautifully and well. Thank you.
  24. Thank you, tim. Sharing these helped me see things more clearly; to concentrate and distill memory.
  25. Thank you, Val. And I am glad you found things that resonate for you in these. Writing really helped then, and now, too.
