Excellent imagery -I particularly liked the line -“my jaw clenched tight. / the ringing of my ears.”- great embodiment of stress.

Nice to see you both working together, and hopefully we’ll see more from you.

However you worked this, the result is beautiful.

This was dark enough to make me happy (if that isn’t an oxymoron), and I’d love to see more.

Thank you so much ☺️ I'm so happy you liked it, it was such a cool collaboration to do with the Quiet Hour Poet, and the first one I've done.

So kind of you to comment and to ask!! I particularly like this one of mine https://voidlightalchemy.substack.com/p/coconut-deodorant?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
