A “soul out of rhyme”? Does that mean too busy with the daily grind, bored, or cannot write? Well, Dulce you sure can write—grin! So...
“I don't listen” either—to myself. Others do not count, for none else could compel me to not do something. Maybe a spiritual event? Maybe a decision? Maybe now, maybe never? The thought of “Maybe Some Day?” seems pretty non-offensive.
I think of the truth—that each Peep is imperfect...with addictions.
You make your point using so few words. It proves that 'less' is really 'more'--(I think so).
Love your (new?) background, that lace-covered arm, mask-holding hand, and the title? Hmmmm! PEACE, Sweetest!
Succinct capture and I understand it from the outside looking in. What comfort does it bring? What makes it addictive, more than nicotine, worse than habit? I am watching my best friend slowly die of lung cancer. It's ugly, not glamorous this too early end of life when the day often begins with "I don't care". Beautiful poem, nonetheless.

the struggle is key...I think it makes us breathe more deeply....those breathless moments are important
Peace
Lithe, and slinky, like the smoke, curling to the ceiling.
Perfect words for the pic!
Words and picture are perfect ~ Though I don't approve of smoking LOL ~
Trying to balance body and soul isn't always easy.
Perhaps smoking doesn't help ...
Excellent words to match the picture!
"Inhaling, hard chore"
What a cool line!
I like your portrayal of smoking - both pictorially and poetically. Very well done.
The picture intrigues me and more so the verse. Should I be a smoker to enjoy this verse?
Joy always,
Susan
umm, yeah, but i do so enjoy it....
I was taken by the phrase "This ripping of a lonely soul out of rhyme."
Very cool, Dulce.
Isn't that the truth with any addiction. Nice work.
