Your poem brings to mind people who suck the air out of a room when they open their mouths.
I’ve known people like that, Liz. This isn’t a cheery poem, but it’s reality at times.
Loved that last line,l Lauren … “assigning them to airless space”. Sadly, there are many of those in the world alright! Wait was this is your book and I missed it. β€οΈ
Oh good, I thought I’d read it thoroughly and turns out I did!! Yayyyy ….you’re always welcome. Thanks Lauren and you tooβ£οΈ
Beautiful β€οΈ
Thanks very much! π·
I found this poem simply gorgeous!
Thanks so much, Luisa! I appreciate your lovely words. π
You’re more than welcome πππ
Truly loved the poem! So thought provoking π
Thanks so much, Pooja. This isn’t one of my joyful poems, but life is nuanced. Have a good day! β€οΈ
Yes, that’s true. Have a good day too! β€οΈ
Love this poem!
Thanks so much, Belladonna! β€οΈπΊ
What a different sort of poem for you, Lauren. I’m used to something lighter from you, and this one is intense. And intriguing. I was captivated. β€
I know…it’s not my usual cheery poem, Diana. But life isn’t always cheery, so I let my emotions lead on this one. π Thanks for stopping by, and I hope all is well with you. It’s good to be back after a long needed break. Life has been crazy. Take care! β€οΈ
Always good to follow the muse. β€ I'm sliding back into blogging slowly. It was fun to stop in with so many bloggers today. π
Beautiful Lauren. Leaving much to our own imaginations. β€
Thanks, Debby! Mission accomplished. π π

A little different but different is good when itβs coming from the heart. You do a good job my lovely friend.
Happy new week. Hope all is well.
Aww, thanks, Selma. ‘From the heart’ is where my poetry begins, and not all are the same. That would be boring. π I appreciate you! Happy weekend ahead! We are home from the mountains, but I’m not back to blogging yet, just peeking. Hugs π·π₯°

You’re very intuitive, Robbie. Thank you! π©·
Love this… “airless space” made a seemingly nonvisual, visual… awesome!
