incredibly poignant

This is just a beautiful piece. Gorgeous use of both imagery and rhythm. This really took my breath away.

Marvelous, but sad, poem.

Surely this valley is not so fallow. Such lush bottom land looks so fertile. I would hope it's not left fallow.

<p>

The start of the poem is a bit off, though. Shouldn't it be "[In] the belly between the bendy days / and the oncoming headlights of sexual reckoning / lies the fallow field"?

<p>

Whatever. Clever, linguistically interesting, the kind of poem that makes me...

<p>

Well, we shan't go into that. :)
