On Giving Up The Drink: (a kyrielle)

[just mercedes]

I like the refrain line, it keeps me centered as I read, and allows the play of imagination full rein - and gives the narrator a sort of distance from the events of the poem. I like to see the tension of opposites used in poems - or juxtaposition, or what ever you want to call it.

Great work for your first kyrielle! They are often quite serious in tone, and yours was fresh!

Funny how there's a lot of cheese on the site...
