Written for: Poets and Storytellers United Weekly Scribblings #59: "Wait For It! (posted by Rommy) "Hello, Word Artists and Admirers! For this week’s prompt, I’m revisiting a favorite of mine, Hamilton. I’ve selected five lines from the musical to inspire our writing: “I’m looking for a mind at work.” “History has its eyes on you.” “Talk less. Smile more.” “Dying is easy, young man. Living is harder.” “Love doesn’t discriminate between the sinners and the saints.” You don't need to use the exact wording, but please do include which one(s) you used to birth your creations somewhere in your post. Share your twist on these lines in either poetry or prose form, fiction or non-fiction." The more I hear you speak in a crowd, the more convinced I am that you haven't the wherewithal. People are appalled at your snide remarks, insults, and ego. Ergo, perhaps you should practice your smile. Razzle- Dazzle them with a pleasing countenance for once. https://poetsandstorytellersunited.blogspot.com/

When speaking in public it is best to convince listeners that you have something to benefit them. If you don’t they won’t support you.

Good advice, Sara. Those type persons don’t have many true friends. Recipients of favors or connections make up that ones followers, many are former adversaries.

The tone here is so delightfully cutting. I can think of a few people this describes. How nice it would be to never hear from (or of) them again!
