Sixth,7th,8th,9th, yikes! Four days between the 2!
Does such injustice happen also, to you, You, or YOU? ?

To be truthful, it bothers me little IF...I just drink a
bottle of booze, my head lowered down in kitchen sink, ..

which once inspired my poem: 'Better Than A Toilet'!
If I move to another site, COULD I start THERE anew?

Perhaps I'd get MORE comments, avoid the P-H squalor.
But this site IS free, and another may cost a dollar!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
There is (not yet) a poem (from me) entitled " Better Than A Toilet" .Actually, though I am always eager to look for and read comments I've received on my poems, the number I receive has little, aka 'almost no', impact on my mood.Fifth to 9th? ? ? ? ! ! ! ! Where IS that bottle? ? ? ! bri :) p.s. I almost never respond to comments on the poem pages, BUT I almost always respond with a personal PH message of thanks to the commenter, but it could take days or weeks before I respond.

Story of my life, too. This site is pretty much dead, it seems. Nobody comments on my stuff anymore either. I have started a new puzzle series called " Puzzle Master" that hardly anyone looks at. There are a few quizzes there that you could solve easily, Bri.

Glad you are only lamenting about lack of comments and not the nuiscance caused by Covid19.
