RE: The art of solitude

in Proof of Brain3 years ago (edited)

I can be myself, walk around nude in my apartment, get high, get real low, cook, eat out, smoke to my heart's content without worrying about someone bursting in on me unannounced.

Many a time when I'm reading your post, I find myself going YOU SAY WHAT WE'RE ALL THINKING!
hahaha
On your collection of eleven poems, I have to ask; was the inspiration Squid Game? If it was, I agree that really was a very dark and chilling show. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy it, though.
Your poem was wonderful. When I read poems like that, I know it must come from a true place in your life.

No it's not based on Squid game which I have not been able to watch beyond the first few scenes. I find it hard to deal with helplessness on screen or even when an underdog keeps getting rubbed into the mud no how they try.

It is based on a docuseries I recently saw in Netflix. Disturbing really and has made me question so many things, well continue to question.

I am glad you enjoy my poems. It is the pleasure I get from writing. Thank you

I totally understand. When I explained the plot to my mom, she said she'd never be able to watch it because she can't stand that they took advantage of vulnerable people.
I see her point, but I'm most definitely desensitized to that kind of media haha.
