All Comments on 'Glass Houses'

Loved the images in this; they fit so nicely together. Between this and "Sonoran Quietude" I see such a compact use of language. The absence of "non-words," i.e. those words in a line a poet absent-mindedly puts in (or leaves in from an earlier draft) but don't add value to the poem make all the images that much clearer.

I actually found this to be deftly erotic.

Really nicely done, Mer.

...and lovely, filling the senses. I can feel the humidity and smell those intoxicating flowers, I like the juxtaposition of the two ladies, one lost in thought, the other outside looking in, the whole of it a nod to the relationship mentioned at the start. Very nice.

ditto, sparse elegant and true

Absolutely adore this. Elegant and effective without sacrificing anything.
