Brevity
The Idea I was wondering how little I could get away with writing in a poem. Taking the concept of brevity as far as I can. I did posit the concept of a one-word poem in my poem “Impossible” (check it out at the end of this story), but I will do a FIB (Fibonacci poem) followed by a Haiku.). I am expecting no reads for this, not because people don’t read it, but because the poems are so short and people will not stay here long.

A Conventional Playlist - Reggae Stylee
Introduction I just shared a story about alternative Elvis Presley experiences which you can check out at the end of this story, but one of thesongs I featured in that piece was Dead Zeppelin's cover of Led Zeppelin's "Your Time Is Gonna Come" featuring Tortelvis on vocals in a really fun video, and thought why not create a playlist with a theme of mainstreamish songs done reggae style. So even though they are not Jamaican Reggae we will kick of with Dread Zeppelin.

Dirk Wears White Socks
This is another story about #CatsinNam, well one cat in ‘Nam (That’s Fenham, not Viet-Nam). As you know part of my steps regime to keep myself reasonably fit is to walk around taking photographs of cats, incidentally, some new neighbours also have a cat so there may be more to share in future.

More Thoughts On Vocal Interaction
Why I Am Writing This I saw the lead image, a quote from Stephen King about the situation being if you want to be a writer then you have to read a lot more than you actually write. This is an unstructured article with my observations on how we should interact with others to improve ourselves and be able to consider ourselves as writers.

King Charles - Loveblood
A Little Background Around ten years back my daughter told me about the amazing guy she had seen live. She has excellent musical taste (takes after her dad) and we both went to see him at an all-day Festival at Hoults Yard in Byker and at the new Riverside next to the Tyne in Newcastle.

Spread The Sunshine
A short sonnet to encourage everyone to be there to inspire others, put a smile on their face and help them if they need help, love or encouragement. This contains a lot of Sun Deities, but I will leave you to find out their origins.

To Find The Witch
A Prologue This is what occurred after “The Shadow” which you can read here I was now the shadow as I watched him leave the house in my body, I did know if he would return, an hour in the state will drive me mad, though he managed it, and he managed to escape, admittedly by stealing, or “borrowing” someone else’s body, but I don't know how this can work as I keep trying to push but I have no physical form, but I will keep trying…
