Strangers Walking...

by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen — Read all 1,670 poems by Erin Elizabeth Kelly-Moen

Wednesday, May 14, 2003

Strangers walking through my glasses,
hollowness cannot give chances,
shallow stalking, ever seeking,
peeking out at strangers weakly.

Strangers sneaking through my gardens,
reaching stems begin to harden,
breaching depth and never seeking,
drawing back from strangers meekly.

Strangers peering through my genders,
naivety that once was tender,
fragility, forever seeking,
staring out at strangers bleakly.

Beautiful cascading of heptasyllables, (except verseline eleven) "Strangers Walking..." has the musicality of Pantoum and Villanelle. A collector's piece of poetic excellence.

In admiration,

My dear Erin.. I do believe you have created that very illusive piece we poets strive for: something absolutely original, unique.. "strangers walking through my glasses.." I was hooked.. It's beautifully rhymed but you've also very cleverly "tapped out" some very deep thoughts here too.. I got caught up in this.. katy.
