powerful and real- I'm totally believing it.
I like the lightness and how you play it with the
reality that it is serious and painful, too.
I didn't get this use of "retain"
False snow on an allotment to retain, perhaps
or to retain warmth

sorry for being so traditionalist, but the "+" and the date were eyesores
it was good in spite of all that.

why not spell out p.o.v.- we had to scroll to the right anyway for the honking last line

2nd to last line- sun's
These are excellent. It IS good to be like moss.
Are you still in transit? How do you find time to write so much? Do you drive around with a phrase in your head all day until you get to take a break, then scramble to get it on paper?
when will you obey?

I almost didn't read because of the title, but it was worth it (both your choice of title and the read).

Thanks. I don't want to narrow it down that much, because I am trying to convey this undercurrent of conception/life/birth here, too. Did it come through at all?

Luckily, in Maine, we have domestic partner benefits, regardless.

What's outrageous?
Papal praise is
What's disgusting?
Condom bustin'
What's outrageous?
Celebate priests is
What's forbidden?

What do we want?
Condoms!
When do we want 'em?
Now!
on Lost key for a hall-closet by zodiac 28 Apr 2005, 8:09 PM
Loved this part "Then she's tucked, like laundry wearing rumpled laundry,
in the old crotchless, scallops..."
