Inverted Skies

Fantastic and emotional.

Thank you, sir.  I appreciate that

I don't like automobiles.

OMG, I love sports cars and driving fast.  It's a dangerous world out there.  Thanks for coming by to read my poem, Midnight!

Oh I know they're lots of fun, but the first girl I ever took to a movie, way back in '81, got killed a little over a year later in a head-on.

Which is why your poem is so relatable.

It really is very well done, and yeah, it's a tricky world.

Stay safe 😘

Damn, I'm sorry to hear that.  I think we all have lost people to car accidents... usually young people.  Devestating.

Thanks for filling me in, Midnight.

So sad that happened but you captured the emotion so beautifully.

I appreciate that, thank you.
Sam can tell you about this girl, actually.

Hey Tim
I'm glad you told me that.  I may need to put some explanation at the end of the poem because author's comments are not visible in the contest.  I can see where it would be a bit hazy what this is actually about.

Thanks for reading and commenting!

That is terrible.  I'm so sorry.  I also think you must have wondered if things could have gone differently should you have been there.

Yes it is, and so many other possibilities as well.
You ever seen the movie, "Butterfly Effect"?

Search it and watch it if you have time.  It's interesting.

Of course

A moving tribute and a different side to your writing prowess.  Nobody can comprehend sudden death.  
Hoping your friend feels your write from beyond ..

Thank you so much.  You and I have been milling over some morbidly sobering issues recently.  I love your comment...

Better days ahead I hope ..

The beauty of the format and the tragic content create an unusually powerful piece. Really great writing.

So awesome to hear from you, Pink!  What an amazing comment.  Thank you.  I really appreciate that.

Meg

So sorry for your loss. This is a brilliant write. Love your word play, and imagery. Into the list it belongs. Appreciate you.

Thank you, DL.  That's an amazing comment, and I really appreciate you too!  Rock on, DL

I never read this before … very touching emotional piece

Yes, you have, Sam.  
You know what this was about.
