    SS:Winter Air

    we took all the wrong turns as we stumbled through the maze
    you had me at hello...but I couldn't see through the heys
    another exhale shows satisfaction in my incompetance
    as shallow as we've become, the water still has a chance
    that my nativity scene is not as innocent as yours
    and my back is to the wall while yours is to the floor
    cold and concrete as it is, it remains proud and unyeilding
    no amount of butterfly nets could help me to catch your feelings
    I never ever lie...because my untruths lack intention
    and when you find my love, you'll see a hideous invention
    of fanciful imagery in baggy pants and coloured tops
    and every scruple of my loyalty is within temperature drops
    but you're blind to this, and those sunglasses hide your eyes
    the cane keeps you from tripping but support can make you cry
    all summed up in a sigh, besides, what do I have to fear?
    you're my only source of warmth...
    and it's fucking chilly in here.

    Be Well.

    Nice piece - voice seemed to go back and forth a little from reflective to playful. Flow was ok - vocab was good. You didn't go for "big" words but rather seemed to choose words carefully based on their meanings and nuances. Saw a couple of lines I really liked:
    that my nativity scene is not as innocent as yours
    and
    no amount of butterfly nets could help me to catch your feelings
    although I think this could maybe be compacted somehow...
    and and
    I never ever lie...because my untruths lack intention

    Nice work - I think the scheme could have maybe been a little more complex - let me know if I missed something. Anyway this pieces strong point is obviously its content. Hit my Lamentations if you can please, or if you already have my SyaNidal collab - peace.

    we took all the wrong turns as we stumbled through the maze
    you had me at hello...but I couldn't see through the heys
    ^Great line...although "You had me at hello" <-I remember that line from "Jerry Maguire"

    another exhale shows satisfaction in my incompetance
    as shallow as we've become, the water still has a chance
    ^Wow..Great lines...I'm moved...

    but you're blind to this, and those sunglasses hide your eyes
    the cane keeps you from tripping but support can make you cry
    ^I'm speechless...

    You truly are a great writer my friend...I was still reading picture books at your age..{It's a Joke!!!!!}..I honestly think you are one of the rare few on this site who actullay could make it as a writer..

    This was a really good drop. It was an easy and enjoyable read. I like lines 3 and 4 alot. Alot of other ill lines too. The tone of this whole piece was nice. This was worth a read. And the last three lines were killer. Keep up the good work.

    Please drop feedback here:

    first off penskills, GET YOUR HEAD OUT HIS ASS... but i agree to an extent, it was a good read, but it seemed a bit short for an SS verse, nevermind... but for what was there i thought you got quite a bit into it... rolled with the topic decent, a bit abstract, but i like that, with some nice wordplay... i'll leave more of a reply in SS when i get round to voting.... no point here... i aint repeating myself....lol.....
