Such is life Christopher, but alas not many want to hear the truth, so unsurprisingly got an N/A, Life is not a fairytale, cheers David

Perhaps a few off cuts seep into my poems from time to time Tom, but the main parts are truly locked away, cheers David

Shaped like a neck pillow, but no soft place to lay a head.

Great description Jenna, neck pillows are an expedient gizmo but certainly not a life solution for comfort, cheers David

Thanks so much Daniel, I’ll never be a winner for extravagant poetic language, but I do try think outside the box and hopefully bring others for an abstract ride, even if it’s just down a cul de sac, cheers David
