- "I too sleep while watching my eyesight fade. I however could never put it into words until I read this. The feeling of waking up when I wasn’t even aware I was sleeping is all too painful. The staircase of life is a very long one, and I often feel numb just trying to reach the bottom. Very nicely written."

- "So evocative and painfully familiar in feeling... except for bathrooms , they never appreciate any sacrifices and make for a crappy witness... keep existing , maybe for all of us on the edge..."

- "Almost sounds like unrequited love...but maybe it's love that is accepted but not believed that it is worthy of being so?
A beautiful write that warms the heart whilst pulling at its strings gently. Thanks for sharing."

- "Sounds like a bit of writer's block... Don't try to hardNot a killer by nature..
I am a killer of things I don't fully understandingly!
This statement comes with
the burden of shame and apology
that may seem unnecessary...
You're gone..and I'm to blame!
You stole into my space
And could not be embraced...
I feared your intent!
Breeding kin
That made my skin
Crawl with repulsion...
And I begged you to leave
But you are feral..had to stand brave
And though many fractions less than my own...
You are known
To bite when you're feeling a threat
So you'll stand your ground..
To your death.
Some of you sting with poisonous intent
Downing opponents that to you are giant
Making us fear you just by sight or sound
By any means; we don't want you around!
I did not mean to end your life
Just tried coaxing you to live it out in the wild..
But you resisted all my attempts at guiding you back out where you belonged
And made your presence known throughout my home...
That Nazi death spray was only meant to make you flee
To the outside world and to safety..
But stubborn you stood and made a lunge
So that plume of spray cut short your plunge.
Please forgive the human side of me
For unwittingly ending what was not mine to end...you were just a baby..but we were not, could not ever be friends. .I have found that it will come with less effort."

- "I actually felt that the hyphens didn't work for me. I found myself over enunciating... like "hal-eff", reading it as two separate words. I feel that there's too many hyphenations. I think the line breaks would be sufficient, sans hyphens. "
