Much could be said about this group of poems with images worthy of paying attention to. I like best the one about the creature so white. Yes, that kind of whiteness can make one dizzy or give one a vomiting feeling. There is such thing as being too white; it comes up pale-like and disgusting to look at. I think a good job was done describing the whiteness of that ugly creature.
Good read!
Love these poems, Sean. Have you read Andrea Paterson’s “Because I Could Not Dump the Trash” [Joe kindly stopped for me]?
