Peter's Soul
The door was thick, four or five inches perhaps and made from iron. It felt very warm, hot even, hand hot, you could touch it but you wouldn’t want...

Parcel for you....Part 27
Vanessa laughed. It was late and she was too tired for anger to surface but vulnerable to silly exhausted giggles. The insinuation was absurd and if...

Dusk
The girl with the softest edges Who summons the stars And the scent of the rose Who unburdens the sun, scattering its fiery embers Her name is Dusk...

Terrifying isn't it, Maxine.
Posted on Fri, 12 Jul 2024
Terrifying isn't it, Maxine. A national health crisis. This will be news for a week or two and then forgotten. For me it raises bigger questions about the sophistication of the crime and how a young man reaches this point. Poor father and older...

That was simply a unique read
Posted on Wed, 10 Jul 2024
That was simply a unique read, nothing predictable, more like a verbal collage using so many materials from different sources to create a thought provoking piece of art. I always found Midsummer Night's dream sort of trippy, I enjoyed how you've...

Posted on Fri, 05 Jul 2024
You paint the atmosphere of the afternoon pub culture so well, the music and laid back jovial haze of the place, half-hearted football and muffled conservation. Part of me thinks those days are gone, I hope they survive in some corners. The meat-...

That's quite interesting. I suppose here in the UK, the weather is so changeable that sometimes the conditions create a perfect storn of sychronised pollination, all the grass going to seed at once for example. I've never been to Pakistan but I...

When I think of DIY, I want

When I think of DIY, I want to take a big nap. Yes, I'm with you there and many other things too. The thought of it so draining for the soul. This is relatable and entertaining too.

That was a fascinating read
Posted on Thu, 27 Jun 2024
That was a fascinating read with lots of different elements. I have never experienced this first hand although my brother did this to his family and one of the things which surprised me the most was the way our mother forgave him (her son) pretty...

Entertaining but too bloody
Posted on Thu, 27 Jun 2024
Entertaining but too bloody true, reminds me a bit of 'The Thick of It'. Boris used to come into a place where I used to work, the scruffy bumbling thing he projects blinds you like a mist. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when the...

Father of the bomb. Imagine

Father of the bomb. Imagine pushing the boundaries of science to invent something groundbreaking, literally, then being tortured by the results. You've captured the sense of confusion and torture and the feeling of something swelling internally,...

You always take us with you,
Posted on Fri, 24 May 2024
You always take us with you, Rhiannon and it feels almost like a mini holiday, reading your poems and the way you capture nature's elements. I could swear my body temperature changes as you describe waterfalls and mists.
