Very nice, beautiful idea indeed. Lovely write with a mix of humour and a tinge of bitterness. And the twist in the end is superb.......

Everyone has rights to dream, it is not betrayal, you speak by all's tongue. Beautiful writing.

An interesting poem....A bitter truth wrapped in dreams and poetic fantacy, which many men do'nt understand......10/10.

Negar/P.I....This piece is off-the-charts innovative, and most entertaining. Your left-halve neuro dominance was in full throttle, for sure...when you inked this pen-gem! FjR
