Pyre Bits
I lay down slow, my bones like wax— and wish you’d lay yours beside me, in the fire pit. Flame would claim us, erase our tracks— while strangers sing...

Sea-Salt
Why is the sea blue? They say it has to do with reflection—or other— but I think there’s more to uncover. So, if that’s true… why is the sea so...

Wow, this brims with attitude and sharp noir energy.
Loved the line “hair-ladders to the moon and sixpence” — it slinks between fairytale and film with wild confidence.
That closing line? A mic drop. Art, indeed.

Thank you so much—I’m glad it had that effect. I love starting in familiar territory and slowly tilting the world off its axis. When the personal and surreal overlap, that's one of my favorites to write. Appreciate you reading and commenting...

This was such a fun read—great rhythm and clever rhymes throughout! I especially loved the lines:

This is stunning. Quietly devastating in the best way. The slow-burn tension, the ethical weight of the narrator’s indecision, and that final twist—it lingers. Made me smile. Thanks for sharing

Robert, this is beautifully written — clean, professional, and immersive. The imagery is rich without ever feeling heavy, and I felt like I was right there with Crowe, tracing his thoughts, doubts, and instincts. The characters are drawn with...

Aww! That’s so special, and what a beautiful gift for your grandchildren—and for Jess. (Love that we share the name—common, maybe, but it always catches my attention!)

I really enjoyed this. The voice is sharp, with tight imagery and strong sensory detail. Tension throughout. You’ve layered history, fear, pride, and loyalty so well—it all lands with impact. Another one for the books!

This was such a vivid, beautiful read—equal parts funny, raw, and moving. The flowers, the coal, the pianos… it’s wild how much memory can live in what others leave behind. Thank you for sharing this.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I must go...
