The Afterglow

 the afterglow

 

 

 

…he reads me like a book,

like the legerdemain

of a magician…

he gets me

with all the precision

of a stephen king novel,

leaving me in the afterglow

of a perfect storm….

Again the imagery is excellent. Lovely short poem of the man that knows everything about you. I get a hint that he might know everything though. Nice work Kelly.
