This is beautiful, Susan...another example of fatal attraction. The first stanza strongly expresses how the 'victim' feels, straitjacketed. The second stanza describes the crazy hold that s/he manifests. ~ Warm regards // paul

Paul, when I joined PS in July, there was a contest that got me thinking on this theme; 'Obsession'. Hence the creation of this write and also 'My Consuming Mania' and 'Physical Freak'. I'm delighted that you found this piece to be well done, your wonderful words are very encouraging to me always. Warmest Wishes ~Susan
