your happiness was killing me
I heard Jimi Hendrix play
Beethoven’s second symphony
on mandolin with Morrissey
whose aria was heavenly
trippy and good opening verse the weight of the first line feels heavy and palpable
Someone threw a dead bouquet
a colander of Beaujolais the use of colander and wine reminds me more of confetti when connected to the top line something that's a great image but doesn't work well in conjunction with the next line. (jmo)
the trappings of the bourgeoisie
all locked up with a minor key these two lines are a good image use to have a tantalus, though i never locked it up like some men do wit their women.
Left of yellow disarray
you wandered into Rick’s café
and ordered from the cold buffet
then washed your feet in Sencha tea
your Buddha belly on display i get the image of pregnancy here
in corpulent discourtesy
Folded into leased esprit
I decreased and stole away i'm hoping this means leaves a partner
and fallen into liberty
I made it over yesterday this last verse feels like like an achievement. that the person has moved on with freedom.
there feels to be an underlying sense of achievement at the end of poem.
and the hendrix verse was stunning in placing the time , the opening line was spotless. i have no idea what automontage means or refers to though it does feel like autoplioting a scene
apart from not being sure about the title i really enjoyed the piece, (all jmo) thanks for the read.
