very sad and even seems to move with a certain ominous pace such things must be written about and it is painted with beautiful strokes 'lay howling /on a laundered sheet' / 'I'll have shed/my fat and will look eagerly/round corners'. very lovely...

hi eb some beautiful diction
Posted on Sat, 13 Jun 2015
hi eb some beautiful diction&lovely word combinations and the stanza beginning 'I thought I sensed breath on my neck', leading to ending, was so close and vivid and full of regret. v neat and pretty but quietly devastating. v much enjoyed.

firstly, this is a lovely title... there's a level of angst but it's the thread of thoughts and images conveyed with such economy of words - the truly wonderful 'A beautiful profile, opened/and closed its flickering lids as it passed away' that...

lots to admire here, i part. liked the stanza beginning 'You’ve flayed me once...' and its lovely/bruising final line, 'you bait me for catastrophe' as well as the aside 'you didn't hear'. rides a tense, bruised level of emotion but is also taut...

Posted on Fri, 29 May 2015
this is excellent, the series of moments come together well. lovely writing throughout; 'from the high window I can view and not be viewed/crouched, crooning as she feeds sweet grass'. the passage of time is done well, fluid between the...
