Smoke away.

It feels like fragmented rich descriptions of a connection. I pictured it as a date. It’s kind of dark but intriguing, full of flavour. I love many of the lines and in particular the last verse

“clock.submerged(in.honey);

reset();”

Thank you @Gub for such a close reading - and for picking up on the flavours. I love reading others' interpretations. Once posted, the lines no longer belong to me, but to the reader. Quite awesome. Thank you.

you’re good.

Thank you so much pen n. x

You’re most welcome.

And I’m so fucking happy you’re fucking happy 🙂

I love that the "skin.unzips" line feels so dangerously physical, making the us feel the exact moment the composure snaps. Brilliant Moty🖤

Your words carry weight, Ink. I hope you know that. Writing this - the exposure of it - pressed hard on both psyche and pen. Closed the app the moment it was out. Appreciate your support, always.

They really do and that’s why I love to support and show love when I see such brilliant pieces like yours🖤

❤️ it.

Thank you so much @UpsilonA x

or maybe 100

wallow

in dirty puddles

empty noses

sniff out betrayal

in something darker

all these lives

hushing each other

darker crept out - frightened

starving for a vocabulary of evil

all these lives, tucked beneath your palm

the wallow

the hush of it all

Thank you for mentioning. I'm taking away this dish. Must use sticks to deliberately decompose each grain, light a candle and watch how this all happens

Agree, TripAdvisor is so overrated. Much like Panorama - page 3, specifically. Walk. Ask locals. Eat well.

Thank you. That comes to £99.99, with service charges included, of course. Hope to see you again soon.

That's a hidden gem you would never find on TripAdvisor.

Omfg- this was freakishly hot.

Thank you so much M, means a lot x

I love the pseudo code logic here MoTy.

Many great lines, but these ones stand out most, especially as statements, not functions.

i.don’t.blink;

i.dissolve;

Thank you so much, Mark. Glad you like my pseudo code logic and some lines too. Just started reading you - happy to discover.

Thank you MoTy.

I don’t normally share links but you might like this as an entry point.

Love this Mark, thank you for sharing. So much fun!!!

Thank you MoTy!

Pulling out my debug hat and dusting off the cobwebs of long-forgotten spaghetti code to elicit a response to your wonderful comment on my post!

I don't know how I held my breath that long.

I'm so glad you made it through this, Jay. Thank you.

""attempt(taxidermy(animal.of_me)) "

That double nesting is genuinely brilliant, the self as specimen, the attempt itself as the outer procedure!

Thank you, Jaap - for reading so closely, and for sticking with me. It means more than you could know.

If you have a book of poetry, or ever publish one, please, please let me know. ✨️

Look at me - melting, right here. If any of my work ever sees print, you'll know the second it happens. That's a promise. So incredibly sweet. Thank you @small victories
