badger11 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Playing hide and seek with Mary, counting the dark away, breathing softly, scenting rumours. Finally I find her kneeling, cleaning the rim, my toothbrush humming like a wasp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyv Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Hi Badge, The poem exhibits a curious blend of allurement and anility. But I'm not sure I want to know what Mary's cleaning ...

Aleksandra Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Here is our Mary again, :) Badge. Most of your poems are like stealth games. I love what's between the lines. In this poem the first stanza captured me. Then came the puzzle... I love it.
