"With its garbage
Cans, junk, and
Garbage"
After reading the first stanza it seemed to be as if you had mistakenly used the word garbage twice. Upon reading the stanza again I realized that the first 'garbage' refers to garbage cans. Why then not have 'cans' on the same line as the first 'garbage'?
An emotional write as usual. You tell a moving story and make us feel every word. And you leave us with hope at the end of the piece. You also leave our minds wondering/wandering. Brilliant! |

| I really do like this "solitary I'ness" type of view both agonizing in it's emotional simplicity and perplexing in who the hidden subjects are of your thoughts. Already, I see you are superb with the "one word title genre" as I call it. I didn't check you site to see if you have a book, but when you do, it's going to be brilliantly poignant (sp?) But we'll need the photos. |
