this is nothing sudden my eyelids twinge to close like the drag of setting sun to carry in my hands the deep midnight of you I hold you gently as if to crumble like autumn in leaf this is nothing sudden as you circle me like the sea and I dream you into waves that strike at my breast you’ve made your way heavily and I have moored you with permanent anchors with chains, umbilicus banging at you like a drowning fish full of waves, full of wet sand and how you will suffer in getting accustomed to me cuz fate is not just whose cooking smells good but which way the wind blows ~ani difranco~ |

you have this way of constructing a solid piece of writing wherein your word choices and their combinations or absences feel so brave and heavy with surety. so glad to be reading these of you. here. ~a. |

Suffer.....no, I have a feeling that word might not be just right, when it comes to getting used to you! |

Nothing sudden, indeed..... Making love was never described as well..... brings to mind Hemmingway's Islands in the Stream. Billy 8) |

Maree, Beautiful in every way. Your writes always move me. The have such depth and such power. I am always excited to read your posts. The have a certain "odd-couple" mixture of both elegance and gritty-ness to them that I shall not tire of. Your poetry is always something I wish I had on my shelf - printed and perfectly bound. Always impressed, Big K |

The more I read of you, the more amazed am I. If this is suffering, torture me. |
