Omitted Organ by Anita MacIf I could love you
at this distance,
I would
in less time
than it took the words
to spark in my mind.
But, love at a Distance
is only another form of avoidance
for my poor brain to abuse.
I would.

Posted by Gabriel Ricard on 01/12/10 at 09:11 PM I think it's pretty damn good, personally. No "Meh" for you, young lady. |
Posted by Laura Doom on 01/13/10 at 12:52 PM While that organ is absent, I guess it's the thought that counts :> Are you sure you haven't just mislaid your notes?
Final lines can make or break a poem...a commitment to the conditional makes it here. |

Posted by Ava Blu on 01/15/10 at 08:04 PM hardly anyone can pull off short poems; no surprise to me that you can do it quite well. |
