Posted by Alastre Zidler on 06/11/03 at 04:56 PM Very creative & unique imagery; I'm getting pictures of Kafka's 'metaphorphosis'. Lets the readers draw their own conclusions... it lingers... |
Posted by Graeme Fielden on 06/12/03 at 04:00 PM quite violent and frantic imagery - very effective... |

Posted by Kara Hayostek on 06/14/03 at 05:57 PM Really nice imagery, I especially like the last few lines "where both my faces bleed into one"
Very intriguing. |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 06/14/03 at 06:49 PM I love poems that employ mirrors, and so I especially like the last stanza in this one. |
Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 07/23/03 at 02:17 AM Bold imagery, the mindless beating of the moths wings against the glass comparable to the "two faces bleeding into one". Stale air, overly warm atmosphere, a room needing attention (cracked mirror), and a very confused person staring into a face he may not quite recognize. The whys and wherefores left to the imagination. |
Posted by Amanda J Cobb on 07/25/03 at 07:56 PM This imagery in this is very stirring, I can see the room so clearly...and it's really quite heart-wrenching, the poor soul at the cracked mirror "where both my faces bleed into one." That really is a wonderful line. Wonderfully written. |
