i struggled with the 1st 3 lines,, mainly this part;
claims the body I’ve lent you.
and the fact it's a long line.
is it saying you lent the servant a body?
after that and the poem is a deep and emotionally strong piece of writing
the jealousy at the end adds is just perfect. the images, the originality of the lines.
I’ve fathered several children now. Perhaps that is my greatest sin,
breeding life out of death, the emotional wreckage my wife navigates,
moving among the socialites, trading quips on so-and-so’s blouse....are my faves though aprt from the quibble all the are
equally as good.
thanks for the read
