Blood Red

Thank you so much for the feedback. I do intend on working on the punctuation. Will think on the foes lines.  But I am fairly sure when people are angry their pupils constrict.  When aroused or happy they dialate.

Hi Spruce,

I don't mean to belabor the point but there aren't emotions that causes pupil constriction.  Anger, love, fear, happiness all cause the same physiologic response, stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system that readies the body for physical exertion.  What emotion we perceive is dictated by the context of the situation.  I had a college psychology professor that gave tips on generating attraction.  The basic premise is to first put your 'subject' in a stressful situation, such as a scary movie or rollercoaster ride and then move to a quiet situation with just the two of you.  The subject will still be physiologically aroused from the scary situation but now in a calm environment will attribute the arousal to you.  Sneaky.

Anyway, I liked your poem!
