This was great. Loved the fragmented language, forming this abstract expressionist view of the complicated life we live. We see a man here longing for home, but also uncomfortable in it, and this powerful dicotomy speaks volumes about our fractured sense of life nowadays. We lead a lot of double lives today, in many different personas, as we waltz the dance of living together estory

LOL Are you kidding me? Of course a bad, (cold) bedroom and home in general will drive a man elsewhere Happens all the time. Man is a sexual being. women are too, but it can be like they jump out of the boat sometimes before the cruise is completed. :) Hi Doug. How's the hip? Bob

This work has reached the exceptional level

Our master bedroom has always been on the first floor, so for all the surgeries we have both had, that's the only bed in the house. Funny you should post this on the eve of my first hip replacement surgery. Time for the next one TBA. Hope your hip is doing well. I'm a bit too distracted at the moment to say much more except that this is exceptional.

    Thank you, Susan.

    PS Hip replacement is not too bad.
    Much easier than knee, which I have
    also had.

    Good luck,

Just love this work Victor.
It has a stamp on it in which one could call own... Yours!
The dialogues , either to oneself or to the reader, are perfect for the style, and only you can pull something like this out of the bag.
This is a six star write, yet so sorry my friend, I am out. I would love to have given this what it deserves.
Original, and not a run-off of anything or any other thing...original is the word.
I know I am getting that with you.
Bravo.
Have a great day.

Hearing constant negativity can wear you down and I have been in a relationship like that and eventually you want out. As for the hip surgery, well I hope you're over it now and can escape the bedroom, a poignant write, love Dolly x

aaah... bedroom 'politics' can be hard to fathom. Who is master in his own home these days? Many men feel on the outer which makes it justifiable, in their eyes, to look elsewhere for solace. Your poem touches on this most effectively.

It is an old story. The actions of a few bad actors cause all the succeeding actors a bad rating. So many men have been treated badly because the women in their lives are just waiting for them to exhibit the bad behavior the women are expecting from them. So, many of us are guilty well before we have committed a crime.

Our bedrooms are our sanctuary where we take refuge. It should have a peaceful and serene ambience. I can't understand why some people paste all kinds of posters on the walls instead! Interesting piece. Enjoyed reading it. Thanks for sharing!
