I say it again for you
because you admire
the brutality of truth
& I admire
it's flawless edge
the way it
pierces the skin
with benign contempt
& opens the moment
to actual content

& I'm still surprised
I can still be surprised

By you

around &
under you
time flows
with erratic
precision
and Chaos
forms the noose
we use
to strangle
expectations

I feel like today, your poems are talking to me. Which is strangely haunting. The title fits it, greatly. Great write. Compelling.

Hollow.

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.

Should not have missed this one this long. Well, done ~K~ ! The serrated blade formed by the poem itself is further evidence of love. We all need it, desire it, bleed from it, need it, desire it, bleed from it... Uh, epiphony here with the title! In awe...

Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere

I admire the way you play with these words.

It's only a tragedy after we bleed.
Your pain doesn't count 'til it's stained the sheets.

WAY better than good!

and this

"I say it again for you
because you admire
the brutality of truth
& I admire
it's flawless edge
the way it

Stellar!
