Jealousy

her mean-spiritedness detonates unsmiling green eyes that narrow and expose the crannies and cubbies of her harsh mouth amplifying sounds of rage in her honey tones, sickly sweet

A very well formed nonet Laf, but are you sure my sweet friend Linda wrote it? I guess even the sweetest folk have pet dislikes. vive la différence! It certainly makes the reader sit up and pay attention. Well done Laf

I showed Dilly my first two masterpieces and she said they looked like computer generated pictures :( ..lol (kinda child like I am afraid. One way to look at it.. I cant get worse !!!! Sad people often have stories that made them like that.. I read that you should walk a mile in the other person's shoes...... after that who cares, you have their shoes and you are a mile away ! all the best for 2024, sweetest friend.

LOL Svvie. I was at a party recently and noticed a woman who seemed just so out-of-place. Her whole demeanor exuded jealousy and spitefulness...just awful...a sad person. Thanks for the stop-by. How is the painting coming along? :)

Hi my sweet friend. Many thanks for the read. I understand the psychology behind jealousy, but am saddened by underlying cause(s). So sad to have influences that set the pattern. Have a fun, love-filled 2024 dear Anaya!

I usually don't like these forced syllabic forms because most come out awkward - BUT - your write here is exceptional in every aspect - read it 4 times and got better with each!

What an excellent nonet! Jealousy and hypocrisy something i fear, as thats the root of all evil, and they can be so sweet but can be so bitter within. But somehow truth always prevails. True colors eventually come out.pleasure reading your work. Sending you light always

Hi Zaynab. Good to see you. This is not a person with whom one would want to spend a lot of time. Thanks for the visit my friend. :)

sounds like an angry person just waiting to lash out...the type of person I would avoid at all cost.. Powerful words...Have a splendid evening, Sara
