Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 10/25/12 at 02:32 PM The way this is written took me into the scene and here I am inside this very small enclosed closet, there is no lid, there is only this poem this moment, thank you Jim |

Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 10/25/12 at 06:38 PM The thing about total dark - "lid" is such a perfect term for how I feel when I'm in the total dark and begin my freaky, totally irrational thoughts. How to escape when I'm not even in danger is such a weird notion. The "floating" part makes me think of sensory deprivation in general. The flow is kept tense and moving fast with your word and idea breaks. I'd say this was worth finding. |

Posted by Cole Miller on 03/12/13 at 02:22 PM being as claustrophobic as i am, this poem had my chest tightening. i'm always impressed by poetry that has a physical effect on me. |
