Well I'm glad I could brighten up your day. Where in the world to begin. I had to read this poem 3 times before I could bring myself to comment on it. As usual you have stunned me. I think this poem, to me anyway, is about regret again. It's about how it gnaws away at you and doesn't let you sleep, hence the insomnia part of the poem. It makes you feel out of control (the car crash) and dirty (bathing in drunken spit) and you feel that no matter how hard you try to hide it (masquarde of the way my head spins) it still seems glarningly obvious (the nude soul) and that the pain of the regret (knives hue the pale skin) is still there. I hope I wasn't too far off the mark with this. Yet again, your poetry left me amazed. Your use of intricate use of words is amazing. 5/5 for sure, if only I could give it more. Have a wonderful day |
Wow, wow, and again wow! This poem is amazing, so powerful. It has vivid and excellently crated imagery. I like it from the beginning to the end, but my favorite stanza is: |
