Tiny pretty things |
by Mr. Darcy
The title suggests, to me, a child wanting/ needing to hide. "Tiny pretty things fall like stars" this creates a beautiful image, and yet the word "fall" is unsettling, especially when effectively repeated in the next few words: "fall like tiny glass bones" I almost recoiled, waiting for the impact and certain fracture of something so fragile. Then, on its own "breaking" putting this word on its own increases its impact. Nicely done! |

Thank you very much for your insights! I see you have a good point with changing breathlessness to breath, I think I will make that change. |
