No wonder there are so many comments to this writing. Its very brevity is its substance. I truly appreciate this piece, all of it. There is hugeness to the concepts of: "divided but not apart" "....sins undefined" (that one is loaded with layers upon layers); and "heart purgatory," is about the best way I've ever seen heartache written down for the reading. "pretending to breathe" carries an essence of suffocation that can be felt just looking at those three words. Immaculate poetry in my eyes, Fee. ~~ Diana

I get a great deal out of reading these words because what they express is familiar to me. Thank you. I also wonder as to why you don't deem me worthy of a comment or two from you on the "stuff" that I share. Thank you for sharing, Fee. Love and peace,

Regis

Opposites attract. It's in our genetic makeup. Civilization is spent a lot of time and effort trying to deny it, but it cannot be denied. Viva la difference!

Fee, as long as we are still "Looking for a sign" there is reason for optimism, the breeding place for hope and expectation. Dick

a felt edge to this velvet verse... torrid and terse... like an anguished curse... put upon to rehearse... drenched in heavy darkness, alighting to rehearse... the same surly dreams... light and dark intersperse...

A rich poem, Fee...
