drenched

 

 

 

 

 

Knees huddled to breasts

I cry. White linen

caresses my skin; drenched

in the break

of my give a damn.

    I like the dam/damn breaking drenching the linen... you, huddled, trying not to care.

    I like this!
  • Dams, as well as "damn's" break. Maybe not your intention, but it fit both to me. Love the one color- you let us pick the rocks and water.

    I'm sopping wet
    from your wonderful weave...


    "in the break
    of my give a damn."

  • Those last lines make this piece. Excellent 20 words. There is something strong about white linen on skin that truly compliments 'of my give a damm'. Nice nice work. I did enjoy this very much. ~Pamela

    I was not expecting the ending of this at all. I liked the attitude in this piece. Well done to say the least
    Ever heard of the song "My Give A Damn Busted" ?

    Good luck,

    Love the innuendo of "give me a damn" - well done, Trina.
