Wow! The poem is ambiguous but I can't help feeling like I got hit by a train with it. Serious talent. I've read this one before and it is not diminished in effect the second time around. Kevin "Poetry is, at once, what you get... and how you got there." |

Ouch. Is it just me, or do these words point to a character remembering incest? Maybe I'm way overboard, but wow, powerful poem. Mike |

How do you manage to conquer an entire story in such a short line of words? I see incest too, and from memory, I huddle down and shudder. Excellently written, to evoke such feelings with so few words, no matter what it's truly about. This is only the second poem I have ever seen of yours, and I am amazed at both. ...Living is ever like crossing rivers; finding a new life on each shore ... RJG |
