, as I ride safely on my vicarious star. .. great phrase - love it!
as to who did the Dew, in a room, to whom. ,, not sure what Dew means
ElP, I really enjoyed this poetic prose. The internal rhyme in the lines was quite charming.
Nice to meet you!
Have a great week. :)

Thank you. Dew is a reference to Mountain Dew, a popular soft drink that is high in sugar and caffeine. Many young people drink many bottles of it.

I get it - suggest you put a wee note in the author notes. That way, you won't have to respond to annoying queries. :)

People who loved reading find even a four-word signage enjoyable, like "keep-off-the-grass". Just using your imagination, generates a lot of meaning. So, why I read about what others have experienced? It is an addition to my experiences, a subtraction to my faults, a multiplication of my blessings and a division of my regrets.

LOVE THESE BITS: A poem within the prose?
So if you want to write to motive, invigorate, or scare, you must tell a good tale and take the rider there.
to laugh or to cry, to give thanks, or to ask why.
the day, the place, the persons, and the play.
that I am he, and he is me, and it is we
theory as to who did the Dew, in a room, to whom.
So if you want to write to motive, invigorate, or scare, you must tell a good tale and take the rider there.
Deserves a 6 but alas I ran out.
