I read the gud one. The only bit I liked was the end when she found him with peanut butter and struggling with a loaf of bread. I'm not sure the poem makes any sense though.

Thanks for your comment. Outcreeping the creep, that's the trick indeed.

There's a mysterious quality to this poeme... something I can't quite pinpoint... I find it haunting... real... it's very powerful... do you often try to evoke such emotions in your work?

This so effortlessly achieves the vague air of guffing claptrap that wheezes out of all good poetry. Sublimely beautiful. A triumph. You have talent: use it.

He got up from the sofa, syringe still in his shoulder where it flopped as he walked to the door, then fell on the floor. Your pun is good too; I hadnât thought of it. Three times is good when killing a man, or writing poems. I might do that.

The last stanza's great and the rhythm's good. It feels like it's missing a bit though; I tend to work in threes - you've given two punishments here, maybe a third would add to the effect?
I've never seen a syringe flop, or is that line just innuendo?

Keep playing around with this one, because it really has got some good ideas and potential.

Am I dreaming or did you crash the wall, slither through the defenses, and post this twice, just nine minutes apart? Please tell me your secret.

I had to read it several times, where a few commas would have helped, and think such beginnings turn away readers, should it be one of the first of yours they read.

I always consider an edit, and agree the linked list of colors and trees goes on a bit. I often edit the poems I post here, but I donât always post the edits. I did repeat the mixing of paint on a palette at the end, hoping to bring home the idea of similar patterns in leaf veins and tree branches, and suggest a connection. Maybe it goes without saying. Thanks for the comments.

May I suggest that strong peripheral vision does not necessarily mean a lack of capacity for intense focus? Of course, itâs perfectly all right to hold a notion without logical basis. We women do it all the time. Just a peripheral notion, of course, and a bit snooty.

If you are looking to edit it I would start by distilling the list of colours and trees into a couple of lines. And don't repeat yourself about the whole paint on a scene palette thing. I don't think the colours of leaves mix either.

Love it. Great easy, loping rhymes throughout. Creepy as hell, unusual, intriguing, topical, personal. Really great.
I saw the Bodies exhibit in New York, and THAT creeped me out. This outcreeps that, even.
