 Edana 2004-11-18 . chapter 1Sorry for my really long absence, but uni has murdered all my free time! Anyway, I love these pretty angsty poems, because they're almost oxymorons with their beautiful imagery and the layers of angst weaved into every word. I really love the image (metaphor?) of the music box in this poem, and the idea of the angel being kind of trapped or concealed inside of it. There are actually a lot of strong / powerful images in this poem that are very striking, such as the tears of blood etc, and its very impacting on the reader. A very lovely, sad (bittersweet really) poem. |
