poetic vacuum


yellowed thread of that green balloon
entangles your pauses,
you find vacuum in my knees-
the gap between my feet and ground,
you fill it with sensual poetry.

Entangles your pauses. Certainly has that feel to it. Enjoyed the way you implement this style. Very effective.

Great flow and rhythm with this Sunday 160. Cool that you combined the two challenges. Thanks for playing along again this week.

I love the vaccuum. I read your piece before really looking at the picture. See her float afterwards was a delight! Thanks for this Sunday morning treat.

This, I thought, was an appropriate response to Brendan's poem today. Sensual poetry..filling the spaces. Wonderful piece..I liked "entangles your pauses" too.

Nice phrasing here. You give a little but leave us a lot to add ourselves. Cute!
