I am mortally offended, Ms. Rachel! I most certainly was never given this poem to read and that seems simply blasphemous. How dare you!

But I lovie it. It's all... haunting. In a way. I think it could have been ended stronger in the couplet (I'm sorry I heart you but we always have a standard of honesty about writing!), but I really like it. It's all these strong, bold images. Dark, but... concrete.

Nice.

It could be my headache from anemia, but I think I liked this one! Diamond in the rough...
