Longing.

Oct 12th [DD] edit: Much love and outstanding thanks for *sfm and ^StJoan.

Daily Deviation

Given 2008-10-12

Paper Moth Wing by *ColdContactKiss's choice of words - her imagery within rhythm and rhyme. Always hinting towards a darker side, with some sort of moral code. I love her whole gallery, but this one always sticks with me. (Suggested by *sfm and Featured by ^StJoan)

I really like this, especially the line about "She was there to stay like a ring around the drain", but it makes me wonder if you mean grime instead of rime in the first line.

lover, now that you've left me,
I'm glad you're unlovely.

Well, to be honest, I needed a graceful number. Twerp's birthday (the 22nd) just passed, so I decided upon his.

Whether it be death or relationship failure, the poem is about loss and longing. Her memory is haunting, yet peaceful. But the lack of physical presence leaves 'you' cold sometimes. Replacing "rime" would change the entire feel, I think. The ring isn't meant to be dirty, simply permanent. There's a strong sphere/circle theme, too, and that commands more focus than a tie between drains and grime. Nevertheless, I can understand where you're coming from and I really appreciate the comment.

I liked this, and I'd thought the 22 minutes was a reference to catch twenty two, as in not one before the other, nor the other first. There is a subtle recurrance of orbital imagery here - perhaps I read to much in.

I do really like this. Nicely done!
