"I have ifs, and you have me," What a way to live. Yet it's too often true.

You've caped all line beginnings except Line 4.
Thirty two should be thirty-two.
I like hso hoping/longing in the last few lines.

Try leaving off the last line, or make it the title.

Maybe it should be "low wage" rather than "no wage."
And maybe "fell from her" not "for her."

Nice beginning. Could leave out "always" and the () around proximity. The ending is good too, but switching metaphors is troubling.

I agree. But a clever twist would be nice - maybe, A bright cloudy day, or somesuch.

It would make a more news-worthy test if you were in that box instead of a cat. Now that would be dental panic.

Some commas needed. Using some, implies they're all there, but no, I think.

I saw a flagman once who made a dance of the mundane. It's inspiring - the window washer and your poem.

Beautiful love poem.
"Naked Gods dropped their robes" - If they are naked, how do they drop robes?
"Enamel flints engulfed from desire" - Rhythm seems off.
I'd prefer not to see the "if" in the last line, but that's just me.

How does a smile become a martyr?
"craven deprications" Did you use a thesaurus for "cowardly blames"? Not that it matters, but simpler language goes down easier. Still, I like this.

Re: levity kiss by skaskowski |

I'm glad you explained that. But why not just let the first line be: Leviticus, levity kiss.
"singed with lipstick" is good.

If it says what I think it might, it's a nice picture. Could you make it more clear, and say stand instead of stands?

To answer your title question, no. It would help to get the grammar right; but even then, I don't see that it makes sense.

This is good,but I think present tense would be better than dodging, drinking, ratioining, etc.
