No such thing. Women, are: No such thing. Women, are designed to bare the hardest things with the softest weapons and what a joy it must be to discover the power of them!  Best blessings ss

I am so honoured you have: I am so honoured you have spent some time in Ssmoothieland! And so excited and overjoyed at your comment! I swear sometimes I write just to impress you. I will never forget the influence you have has on me as a writer, an observer of truth, perception or thought. What a glorious day! I haven't much time and sporadically do something here and there i don't refine often, I just pour it out on the page and share it with the universe, better out than in... a coping mechanism i can only write on my phone can't type much anymore due to an injury... rehab is a blinder of a thing! Never ready for it. But at least I have some avenue and maybe some audience who will make of it what they will. I just wish I had more refind stuff... maybe I should add a code to differentiate from my rambling thought bubbles and save more than a few from certain shock or boredom!  ha ha ha  So happy you dripped by the world is feeling much righter and brighter today! Thank you, my PostPoem legend!

SSmoothie commented on: Whoah there Tiger! by SSmoothie 2 years 42 weeks ago
Thankyou its hard to be fair: Thankyou its hard to be fair and real in a world of propaganda that glorifies tearing down the old and filling it with the new. A compromise must be reached. And the only way is being brave enough to say what is not ok and be ready for the truth of any side  where compromise or acceptance resides. Cancel culture is an abomination to me. the most dividing, unloving and dictatorial thing and Stalin started it and Hitler refined it. The world is far more complicated than anyone wants to think so the more absurd the distraction the easier it is to manoeuvre in the darkness... who operates in the darkness with no light? Nothing good in my eyes. Hidden agendas have a lot to answer for we are all sleeping at the wheel of the next generations inheritance... blessingss ss

The powerful empathy and: The powerful empathy and wisdom in your words radiate right off the page, like an fissionable substance, and into the readers' minds. Well written, well thought out, and well presented.

Although not entirely sure of: Although not entirely sure of what is means, I like this poem very much.  It reminds me of some French symbolist poems.

You had some excellent: You had some excellent inspiration and your offspring has all the resplendent craftsmanship of a classic love poem and all the allure of a drama.     Your innovative twist is your high-impact focus on invaded privacy, the "voyeur's curse", that intruded upon one of the most important firsts in a person's life, or, in your shrewd words, a "perfect abyss", an "inexperienced intensity". With impressive skill you conveyed the envy of the killjoys.   We're left wondering how beautiful the story would have ended if the young lovers had been left alone. And yes, as Starward noted,  there is a strong undercurrent of Shakespearean tragedy.   A powerful angle on a timeless theme. Excellent, as always.

patriciajj commented on: PEARLABLES by georgeschaefer 2 years 42 weeks ago
I thoroughly enjoyed your: I thoroughly enjoyed your endearing, down-to-earth and nostalgic portrait of a different sort of hero: the everyday fixture in our lives who brings a bit of joy, if only for a short while in small ways, and in the case of Old Pearl, in the form of the familiar "grease truck" (I take it there were no vegan options for strange people like me ).   I had to smile at your clever swipe at gentrification: How an authentic "roach coach" serving "hungry plebes" back then is now something hijacked by the suits and the fashionable because "Anthony Bourdain rode in/ and glamorized food trucks" that had, until then, "barely evolved from the chuckwagon".   You did a superb job bringing Pearl and the old days (not always good, but strangely missed) to life. A pleasure to read.

My first impression of this: My first impression of this poem was a sense of Shakespeare's adolescent lovers, Romeo & Juliet.  Any poem that presents some aspect of them is, by that association, beautiful.
