after he’s gone
getting ready for new love
a day like any
straightening out the sheets
from his side of the bed

Politics, Opinions And General Discourse
A town everyone hates, yet no one leaves...
Weird and Random Thoughts
Falling word fragments, scribbled on scraps of paper, bits and pieces of my soul
a little lunch, a little wine, a LOT of talking!

a girl and her words
pauletry ..all fiction and facts... all literature and such... all pictures and art..
Cette obscure clarté qui tombe des étoiles.
What is there to do but move on?

Thank you very much John for such an encouraging comment. My best to you always. 🙂
It was perfect. You illuminated being dismissed by not even giving yourself a presence. Only the perspective of the dismisser was permitted life. Even though the reader knows that she could hardly have completely erased you like that, it doesn’t matter. Because you ARE writing about what you experienced. But she is your voice. Your silent voice.
Here is this very complex relationship. Right now, that is what the poet allows a glimpse of.
Good poem, Mr, Gandhiok!
