this has always been one of my favorites of yours... I have always been tempted to try to draw this poem...

Your writing always gets to me on a level I never expected. Sometimes you remind me of Tori Amos. I don't remember if I read this or not, but somehow in one of my stories there is a line about oversized gumpdrops. Weird, or maybe that's the proof that your writing is just so deliciously detailed. :D
