I really enjoyed reading this poem, parts of it were better than others, this is my favorite though..
your swallow tail skirt,
the slim slit I requested waves free
in the wind
down your left outer
silver stocking thigh
black against gray sky
silver stocking thigh, black against gray sky....yeah, thats really good :)
Seldom have I read a poem with such a balance between the narrative and the elaborately precise. I't was pure delight to read.
I keep coming back to this poem. Its as if I think maybe she will be found, and in a way she is. Every pass it is stronger, more clear, more familiar, wonderful, Mr. Walker, you sure know how to write a poem.
