After Birth Delight

[tectak]

Great read. The entire time there was this uneasy undercurrent (perfect for an uneasy subject matter), then bam! Those last two lines were just sublime.

Thanks addy,
I guess that part of the uneasiness is felt by me ,too. I keep coming back to this one as I am troubled by it......both by it's contentand by it's style. I had never considered that those two demons could actually become virtuous

my first thought upon reading the title was to try and remember the tune to afternoon delight

but the poem. ...it was a wowzer. i wouldn't change a thing, the end rhymes are great but not as so as the content. the word flow you have going on is almost addictive. the consonance and assonance are excellent
i don't know how others would or do see this but it's one of the best pieces i've read in a long time. oh, and it's almost sonnet-like to boot. kudos

thanks for the read.

Ah you old flatterer, you.
Seriously though, billy, I had grave ()reservations about this one but I am now going to stop whipping myself. Funny how praise is worthy, but disdain is dismissed as irrelevant.....well,for some.
Best,
Tectak
