A true poetic reminder that once Mesopotamia was the rich and fertile cradle of civilization, not strife and futile death.
I found it about as erotic as a tick on my ass, sucking what blood had not drained as I read this tripe.
Your line breaks are choppy and horrendous, your analogy to Mesopotamia is so far fetched it was painful to read. I have to wonder, which one of the Lit regs are you posing under this name as....
I really like the opening, both as setting the scene crisply and the chosen scene itself. Sweltering hot and thoughtful at the same time. 'Tween the Tigris and the Euphrates is the original Garden of Eden, ain't it? ;-)
Bravo. And I see the source of your inspiration for <i>The Mephitic City of Anon</i>; don't blame you — let loose a vent now and again.
Your language just blows me away. This is a phenomenal piece.
