I like to believe that love is a way of life and so is reading poetry. And sometimes one can simply fall in love with a poem and admire the poet for being the instrument that created such beauty.
Ooooh, I like that, "peculiar nakedness". It feels that way, a nakedness, and yet, there is a trust, a safety that goes along with the exposure, the disclosure. Along with love being a decision, and therefore, the decision to read a poet's work being equal to love. You've captured this very nicely.
