    Now Maryanne, I really felt this piece, and the image of this woman in the shower, the steam, the redness of her skin, its so powerful, really sombre scenery but a deep piece of poetry surrounding it.

    Maybe she's trying to cleanse her
    soul, nurturing her words like thrown
    aside seeds that her body will be a temple
    instead of a hoarding place for secrets

    ^^I loved this stanza, I've often stood in the shower trying to erase a part of me, trying to clean myself and burn away who I am...

    I really felt this piece, good job
