now it has been dented
there is no reason
heart is accustomed to the favorite it is not
what is done?
it waits
an insecurity
of person
of other woman
insult, rumor and the like
of appraisal
of make-up
of dress being attached to
to be enormous
overstraining
curving, becoming tired
there is feeling
but it leaves way
so, that?
me, recovering unnoticed
it is not forward, it is loss
happy now
he is appreciation, appreciation
able to persevere

You know I miss your writing. Ever since I put you in Volume II of the AP Journal, I've wondered where you went to. Hope you come back to put up some poems.
Miss you.

Torn, I love the structure and rigidness of your poems. This one
keeps an almost restricting form. I also like the use and repitition of all of the "of's" in the second stanza.
Also, I like how you don't use a lot of words to describe the feelings, but words that are descriptive enough to get and idea of what the poem is all about. It really allows for an open translation of your poetry.
"heart is accustomed to the favorite it is not" is really the explainer line in this poem. From there we get this is a sense that this is about an unstable relation.
"he is appreciation" is really a double meaning line. "he" could be the loss along with the "happy appreciation".
Really enjoyed this one. Far better than a lot of crap on this site.
