you were accidental willing
when I was wicker wickeding
like stabbing straw into the water

we felt the end of ourselves
pressing against the metal we had made
the armor for our hearts out of

your nails scratched my back boards
as I wrote you poems mostly
with only those four letter words

that were loveless but you knew better
as if I wasn't really that ruthless
but you said you did prefer my animal

to the condition of my mostly human tender

"to the condition of my mostly human tender"

You give the impression of being the perfect mix of both conditions, dear Poet D.!

My favorite four letter word is LOVE. It dominates all other four letter words and contains simply everything and everything springs from it.

LOVE,
Margherita

And this is the reason that I go back in time.  How did I miss this poem, D?  It's wonderful and it must have been yelling for me to read it. I am glad that I have.
