Ensnare me.
Tenaciously constrained,
the chignon is pressed
against chopsticks
and entwined with ribbons.
Unbind me.
Please tell me what you think

This is a lovely poem with great word economy – short and not a word wasted… something that appeals to me and which I appreciate in poetry. I liked the short sentences, especially the contrasting effect of “ensnare me” and “unbind me”. I somehow feel you don’t really need the last stanza or perhaps not the line “gossamer on fingertips”. Perhaps end the poem at “unbind me” and then just “tease me with your touch”. But it’s your poem… and I did enjoy this one.
Thank you for your entry.
