[Samara]

well, this is exquisite.

[Liz Zimmers]

Thank you, Samara!

[Alma Muminovic]

Beautiful imagery. The painting visual primes the idea so beautifully too, I could see her movements.

[Garen Marie]

My god. This knocked me out cold! You're an artist, Liz!

[Liz Zimmers]

Thanks, Garen! I can never tell if I get it right with poetry. I’m so glad you liked it!

[Garen Marie]

You most definitely got it right!

[K.C. Knouse]

Beautifully rendered, Liz, as in "the silken scaffold of her appetite

pinned to the thorns and smoking

in the morning light." A joy to read.

[Liz Zimmers]

Thanks, K.C.!

[Hayley Stone]

Very evocative. Wish I could write poetry like this.

[Liz Zimmers]

Thanks, Hayley! How do you know you can’t write poetry much better than this? Give it a go. Just yank it around until it says what you want it to say. 😊

[Hayley Stone]

I’m tempted.

[Liz Zimmers]

Do it!

[Lyndsey Resnick]
