now, i got to go find something, elst i look like a fan
triumphant ly - here is your worst error. i don;t think you have reason for it.
I will venture a guess, this line gave you the most trouble:
and my own line in the sand mentality.
or this
This family should be wounded
picky, picky, what do I like? everything
in memories of last ditch effort roses
like that, like the short sentences at the beginning of last stanza
like the waver in the linearity
like the encasement, start with tv end with tv
the roots stay stronger embedded in familial soil, TK U MLJ LV NV
One of those poems I will have to reread a number f times before they are "mine" entirely. Especially the title give the poem a possible meaning I will have to work my way around.
Great work, Desejo.
My favorite line is "The instinct is strong to revert
reassert who you are not who you accept to be." I relate to this on a "human" level and as a woman who looks back and says 'You don't know sh@t till you're thirty." I love this and plan on "borrowing" "not who you accept to be" many times in my line of work as well as for myself!
