the mirror you hang on your bedroom wallshows us crumpled into each otherlike accidentally pressed flowers.

~the nature imagery was gorgeously overpowering ^_^i love this piece so much ^_^ from the broken up stanzas to the names of the flowers & the whole *female* touch to the poem =)

Wow! I love how you kept the bird and flower imagery throughout the entire poem. Nice continuity. I think my favorite line of this was "the mirror you hang on your bedroom wall/shows us crumpled into each other/like accidentally pressed flowers." I love the verb usage in that, and the image of accidentally pressed flowers. Great work. I'll be reading more of your stuff in the future. Keep writing! :)

love the images, love the way you go through the poem, violent-gentle, how the underlying metaphor begins to slowly reveal itself. augh. fantastic job.

one of the most beautiful tragics ive read thus far on f-press. the avian metaphor throughout the poem is marvelous, as is the excellence in about 3932 of these lines. brimming with the breaker of hearts. i love that. the last part, the key was swallowed long before/so i slip out the window/and soar. perfect. so jealous, but writing is about the love, the art, and not the glory. so keep it up, almost. automatic. ;)

love, c.induced.

you left so often, but allowed me to stay in your garden.

these golden stems sprouting from the earth

mesh above, around and below me.

such thin plants, but so difficult to bend.

that is unbelievable, fragile & gorgeous. i am in love with this poem.

wow. this is so beautiful, i loved it so much. you are so amazingly good at writing. i'm adding it to my favourites. oh and the way you wrote the lines: 'you fooled me into thinkingi was a greenhouse flower, but' was just so wonderful.

that golden cage. thoroughly decent read - metaphors of metaphors! (can i say tasteful?) worth it. almost bordered on the cheese here and there.. but not quite. i like it.
