"Poetry comes at things through particulars, by means of images, and it doesn't deal so easily with generalities. Its mode is to cherish without limit. You could say it is idolatrous art. Some poems, the great poems, are true to their specific situations deep down, but they also have a universal quality that lets them live again and again, even in apparently unrelated circumstances." -Galway Kinnell

These are exceptional lines, Sneza! I especially love the different rhymes... the assonance and consonance is also very pleasing to the ear.
thanks! it might be my best verse so far in terms of sounds and things coming together in such a small space.
