Her Father's Watch

[Simon]

I love the casualness of the line "new amputees pick up estranged palms," and how it works with the momentum of the poem!

[Josh Datko]

Thanks Simon, that was a last minute switch I'm glad I went for it!

[Misty Violet]

LOVE this. Very clear.

[Josh Datko]

Thank you, appreciate you saying so.

[Casey Bolt]

This is tremendous!

[Josh Datko]

Thanks Casey for the kind words. 🥰

Vivid imagery, and an interesting idea of watchmakers’ revenge. I love short stories like these!

[Josh Datko]

Thanks! I tried to think of ways to stir up multiple feelings here.

[Martin Garcia]

Those damn watch makers. Haha. My knee jerk reaction is watchmakers revoking against phones and smart watches.

This one was also very easy to picture.

[Josh Datko]

See you say that, but I stopped wearing a smart watch a while ago 😀
