disdainful or not, your poems always leave me in awe. I'm sure I've said this before, it's poets like you that keep me away from poetry. you're that good, jacob.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you for your kind words, Woody...

If this is intended as a senryu, are eight syllables allowed in the second line?
Or, could this merely be an example of non-rhyming triplets (?) written "with flagrant disdain?"
You, anti-hero, you!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

flagrant disdain...thank you, Jimmy...:)

[Corset]

[jacob erin-cilberto]

[Corset]
