Love the imagery and metaphor that unfolds. Mentioned in today's new poem reviews.
It has vivid metaphors; your words make it such a clear little story. And the ending is sudden and surprising. Great writing! :-)
Bruises and the drift of memories<br>
seared by the hormones of fleshy proximity<br>
the long sweet hours of obsession<br>
stretch in all directions<br>
wrapping into your life<br>
from the focus of the poem<br><br>
Agree with Angeline, so used to standard fare here that ending really was a surprise, had to read it twice. A stand-out.
