Thanks for the feedback, Philatone
I imagined the author in this piece to be a pulp novelist, a la Mickey Spillane. And in answer to a question posed by your critique, "all women must be hurt" through the characters he creates in his books. Also, the "weird light" in verse one is the author's soul peering from between the lines. Thanks again!
