This is a poem I've posted before, but I've added a title that might make its intent clearer.

Jesus Comes Home from Kindergarten

my son
gave me
a finger painting

of himself

done in blood

and it moved me
like heat
wrinkling
the air

as I hung it
on the fridge
with magnetic
nails

You are very, very good.

Nod.

And you have a nice face too.

This is the sort of thing I only wish I could do...but like your son? I tend to throw everything on the page...

Loved it.

I could read much into this. Mind you, nothing bad, but I think I shall keep it to myself. An interesting write that I do like. Thank you for sharing.

well...the title drew me in...I found it to be a 4-hmmmm write...which simply means I found it exceptionally (as someone else described) intriguing...
