Great write, I particularly love the last part from, "It's over..." to the end. A perfect summation!


Her Name Was Faith

2011-07-05
The parents' worst nightmare. Now I have my own offspring, this means so much. I shall hold her close tonight in honour and lieu of your being able to do it to your own. Shit, I don't know what else to say

I love your robust toothsome style in this poem. It makes me want to read more of your work. Which I shall do forthwith!


Flickering Life

2011-07-05
Love this! You're so right; one cannot do anything about a suicide. Suicide's not about anyone other than the person themselves. Just being there until the end is enough.


Closer than your breath

2011-07-05
Love this. Very tender.


becoming a mama

@countryfog - Yes, supportive and stunned, hmmm, have you met my husband? ;)

@ Rob - You leave my mammories out of this, you cheeky thing!

@ Ferenc - 'What a woman', Well thank you, my love; you don't know the half of it! ;)

Wolves are dangerous, wild, seductive. Let's face it, who wants to be with the alternative? A fucking sheep? Methinks not...

OOPS

2007-09-12
i love that you don't wallow in your pain but rather utilise the poems to exorcise it and pass on aversion of the feeling to others so that they know you a little more

I AM A DYSLEXIAC POET

2007-05-24
This is fucking hilarious to me, well in part anyway. I am from a particularly dyslexic family and I have howled with laughter at the writings of my dad and my sister on occasions! I'm not dyslexic , myself but I am the one who is charged with checking the others' stuff. I am glad that you are unself-conscious about this, because it's damn funny, poignant and really good writing!

Thanks.

Love,

Rach.x

she makes him like her

2007-05-02
this reminds me of a fact i learnt recently about angler fish, after they mate the female absorbs the male into her body and he actually becomes her on a molecular level. art reflects nature, eh? i suppose we are all emotionally canabalistic after a while. either that or you don't stay together.
