To the House on Katelyn Court In Yukon
sorenbarrett said:
A poetic offer and question all in one. The poem plays on perceived desire by the other and reticence at first that becomes a question and implied offer at the end. Nicely done

Either that, or love the corpse and try to redeem her, if it\'s possible, no? Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Don’t Look For Me
Cheeky Missy said:
Never ever been there...yet. However, my only nephew is there, studying for his occupation. His grandmother [my late, beloved mother] spent a few years in her early childhood there in OK, and that\'s all I know regarding my connections there. I grew up in Colorado, but that was the 1980\'s; I\'ve been in Lincoln\'s Land since, but I was born here. And yes, you\'ll likely find some relief if you leave. I literally had to move an hour away from a city here in Illinois because, despite my acknowledging it neither knew me nor was my city, my heart couldn\'t let go, perpetually drawing me to the house my family last inhabited, the false promise I\'d find the key to return if only I went back to that place what bound me stupidly to a city which actually didn\'t care two bits for my existence.
But thats too much of me.
Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Don’t Look For Me
sorenbarrett said:
Oklahoma I have lived there many years ago and this trigger brings memories. This poem speaks of memories as well and a bond that can not be broken in state of memory. Freedom lies beyond its borders. A sand and longing poem of past pain as a chain each link a memory. Nicely done
