on the down side of morning when life has not yet become real I am quietly deformed by the set of your jaw words not said I am left fearfully alone unreal as the morning I thought I was a woman once or did I but dream hands that measured me for warmth did I really know a soft cupping of breast night breaths playing on a hungry shoulder bodies front to back rocking in primal recall no I am but a place to stream anger frustration a place to rub emotions not a woman but a place I am a quiet deformity that afflicts you on the down side of morning when life has not yet become real [This message has been edited by The Lady (12-12-2009 11:28 AM).] |

Sometimes I read poetry and hope against hope that it is not written about the one who has written it. Know what I mean? I am hoping. That is how powerful your poetry is - it hits me hard. And it is good. Thank you, Kate, for returning and sharing. Alison |

Very moving... when one feels as if a piece of furniture someone has stubbed their toe on but refuses to polish for their own clumsiness... unfortunately...it is one I think more can relate to than would want to admit... |

Gads, I'm glad this rose back up because it is a soft recall of anger and angst... lest I forget... can it all change? I think, under certain circumstances, it can... at least this is what this poem brought to my mind... and when making one think? Then it is all good my dear friend.  |
