Click hereWith the gentle immorality
of your bituminous kiss
my iron will alloys
with your open, accepting atom
and I there am made impervious
Be I now bar or blade
you will bear my steady weight
for I am hard in my patience
and know not if I build
a tower or a cage
Last three lines are beautiful: "for I am hard in my patience/ and know not if I build/a tower or a cage". The imagery beautifully borrows from the man's work and ties them to the relations for some subtle suggestions.
your poem has been mentioned in the New poems review at the poetry discussion forum. Thank you so much for posting your work.

exactly how to explain why I like this, but I damned sure do!
It is intelligent, but in a different way. I love the subject matter. My hubby is a welder who specializes in wrought iron and I have written several poems for him.
I will say it again, this is exceptional poetry for "this place."
I truly hope to read more from you.
