Read MoreI. In Jade Relief Within verdant stillness, it breathes—exhalation of peace in stone.Silence carves itself into serenity,each line straightens to temporality. Eyes half-closed to becoming,he sees what cannot be unlearned:the world forever shaping itselfaround folded edges of release. Calm is not absence...

Okay, you earned a “Wow!”. this is very good. The second one is my favorite, because it seems like the peak of them all.
Even, the fourth reads like an epilogue, btw. Planned? A solid quartet of strong writing.
Awesome crafting of words! -

Libellule, this poem is so artfully crafted and an exquisite blend of light, artistry and form. There s gentle flow here that felt like reflections on the art so gently scribed I could feel what you saw in an emotional way. Truly great poetry.

I can see why there is silence and then applause. It is poetic the way she decided to leave this earth the moment she arrived, but still, that is something. I like sending it to the senator, showing what happens to people with budget cuts to needed medications and research for a cure.

Thank you, Fia. It was a trip performing this, especially at the end. The first time I did it the crowd just sat there, silent. I thought, oh, fuck! I guess I’ll never do this one again. Then someone started to clap, then another, then everyone was applauding — but not very loud. And I understood.But that was a hellofa time, very scary, especially for the people who had been infected. A sure death penalty, very slowly.

I read this late last night and had to log off before I commented.
This is intense. For as dark as it is it has a lot of intimacy.
Through you the audience got to know her and in turn care about her.
Bravo!👏-

A bit macabre, here. Quite appropriate for this time of year. Poe might be jealous. Very good writing, I’d say.
