"VIRTUAL REALITY LOVE". Content Warning.
This is a poem, a story about two twin souls meeting online at an older age. They live far apart but not in their hearts. There are many stories of romances online in 2024. Not all romances online are scams. I believe in love again even at the age of 74. I have an old rock n roll heart. Rock on through the music and time of space and internet lines.

'TWD' Anthology
King County Never had I dreamt the perfect world would lie in waste... in dust and grime... the rocks of Atlanta still in an eerie silence... the Mother of all halted by a meaningless betrayal. Tears of the once brave litter the earth beneath the steps of a father, a leader of the lost. Must democracy reign amidst dictators or shall a savior emerge, offering protection against the connection to the poisonous forest - venomous by nature, experimenting with the living. It mocks those who lament over the front it has up, disorienting and diminishing what little will is left. Empty holsters with pistols held at temples - justification for the new world, the once perfect world.

Betrayal (Dedicate to the late 'Body-good', Jamaican LGBTQ+ Social Media Entertainer, Murdered 12/02/24). Content Warning.
Verse 1. Slickly sliced and out runs a gush of weakened emotion telling Me, I am to blame as I missed every que & clue. Subtlety judging Me, Abusing Me, Using Me, Rejecting Me, then expecting Me to be ok.
