Hi Marion, ..this might sound ridiculous and I'm not saying I'm not insane (as writers we are all a little quirky).....I use a certain voice in my head when reading Roald Dahl poetry and I automatically used it when reading this
Really enjoyed this one
Lorna xxx
Thanks Lorna...appreciated x

Thanks Nev ...sorry for late reply x
No worries .. Hope this is a better year gall x
Marion enjoyed reading this one very very much and reminded me of something Irvine Welsh the author of Trainspotting would write.
Great to read and how you phrased it.
To be honest it took me a fair while to decipher it!!!
All good and hugs to you my friend :) x
Thanks Shaun x
Am I unholy or wrong to laugh at this? Because it did make me laugh... it was surreal and ...well, a kind of black humour thread all the way through it xx
Na...laughing is perfect lol...I imagined a simple minded innocent (crazy?) lady who unknowingly killed/ drowned the light of god with his own holy water. Shame on me. 😆😆😆 ...and you...for laughing 😆😆😆 🥰
Hahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣 That is exactly what I understood from the poem and I found it funny 😁 xx
Fuck mind...I do worry sometimes about what god is going to say to me when/if I get there...but only on the days I believe in him. Then again I think if god doesn't have a sense of humour then we are all fucked anyway because humans are ridiculously stupid ...and I'll be reminding him also that...that's his fault not ours! 😇😇😇😆😊🤩
If God did make mankind then he has a sick sense of humour! Lol x
🤣🤣🤣
