Author's Note

Two syllables a line. (I think?). :)
Chap is another word for friend. (I think). :))
It's kind of a metaphor for how broken up this place can get. (I think). :)))

Reviews

[Robert Trakofler]

Lol so very true but bellows of inspiration far outweigh the grumpy gremlins me thinks:) good sir relic

[Relic]

Thank you, Robert. :D

[Betty Hermelee]

I read this poem several times; I like the style; it keeps bringing your eyes down the page slowly and is easily understood. Nice, creative work!!!

[Relic]

Thank you, Betty. :D

[Chris Shaw]

Too much drama here by far recently. I much prefer poetry to drama, especially when the drama is of the poorest quality. I like the fragmented touch to this little write. Yes, like the cafe at times, broken.

Thanks for reading, Chris.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

broken up much like the cafe is at times...i like the Poe in Poetry that is separated.
I think the Raven is knocking on the door, forevermore...forevermore...
the poetry is losing its battle to the drama....we can't let it...

[Relic]

No, we can't, J. Thanks.

[Laura Kate]

Great! The dis-jointed lines and syllables showing the sense of dis-connect.
Reading the last few lines my mind skipped ahead and saw - that is my usual best friend .... :)

Thanks so much for review, Laura. :))

[Poetic Beauty]

It is better to stick to the poetry than the drama. Well done

[Relic]

Than the drama ~ yes, it is, PB. Thanks you. :)

[Dave Brown]

Is this a narrow point of view?

[Relic]

Haha, I guess you could say it is, Dave. Thanks. :)

[Susan 🦋]

Ok that's cool!..Ya managed the two syllable thingy :-) I'll stick to my poetry chap! ;-)

[Relic]

haha, it's a deal, Sue.

[andrew mitchell]

Haha excellent and clever, quite unique!

[Relic]

Thanks. :)

[Murugan Appa Ponappan]

Stick to my poetry? Hard really hard. I can't think of anything. Just muddled.

[Relic]

I can't think of anything either most of the time, Rania. Anything I write comes from out of nowhere and 16 of them have sat here for days or weeks before I trashed them.

[Murugan Appa Ponappan]

Wowee I’d go off the pen completely if I had 16 not working out. Great of you to keep trying.

[Relic]

I always do. :)
