Gorgeous poem. I read it yesterday and had to come back today to read it again. Thanks for sharing. :)

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. :)

incredibly poignant

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