revisit

[just mercedes]

Hi Leanne - I like the reach in this, and the bones of process remaining - it reminds me of dirty/pretty. I really admire poetry that uses font as illustration or image, not just letters of words. The cross-outs force a slowing down and return, and so somehow emphasize what has vanished/been rejected. The second stanza is my favorite, "soft teeth" made me see melting grand piano keyboards, don't ask... The rest of the imagery is so vivid that the 'dew and dawn-capped silence' felt a little like a let-down.

I don't think you've forgotten how, at all. I enjoyed the read, thank you!
