All Comments on 'Denizens: James'

...Tennessee Williams, especially as a compliment, but here goes: "Fuck you!"

This series is wonderful! Like a lot of poet's here, I wish I written them. So, with a smile, and tongue firmly planted in cheek, I quote him again... "Fuck you."

(And, when do I get to see more???)

Kind of blown away right now by the heart in this poem. Wonderful build to sweet sorrowful ending. Great work, Mutt!

you might run into trouble with these after a while.

I was wrong.

Each one is as unique and different as the person you seem to posess.

truly you have found your calling.

Excellent work.

And that ending....perfect.

Thank you

I've enjoyed this whole series, but I think this is one of the ones I enjoyed the most?such sadness that follwed James home and no one suspected under his perfectly put together guise.

Really nice work!

you bring these people so to life.....unfortunately I can also personally relate to this person....you're killing me with these Mutt. Nonetheless, thank you.

What an amazing cast you've assembled. I feel like I need a big bucket of popcorn when i read these!

You get a five, 100... full marks for this line, "dragons for Kim".

Mmm I love my dragons ;-)

So very well done and touching! And real and entirely possible and easily imaginable. Have you considered sumbitting this to the Saturday Review of Literature or some other glossy magazine that features short literature?

Excellent! amicus....

I like to go through the older submissions - you know, the ones that were already old when I came onboard. Like looking through old magazine issues in a cold waiting room - and then finding something so compelling to read - makes you want to keep on waiting just to finish the read.

This is so powerful

delivering a wallop

of palpable pain

Another sadly tragic figure, though far nobler than your Debbie Denizen. Very touching.
