You had the flow going way back in the day. Glad Paul shared this one on Deep Cuts. It's a great poem with a message that smarts.
Unique! I really enjoyed this and it’s totally different format and clever content ❤️
I was going to ask, "But what do you love, Kendall?" I guess I finally got my answer, delivered in such a manner as you love.
Very thought provoking and interesting.
This is a definite chin-stroker and thought-provoking. Enjoyed the format and the way you played it out! Great stuff, Kendall!
