Diamonds and Sylvia Plath

tiny diamonds, 
like two tamed supernovae, 
in earlobes; a shiny 
forehead which would do 
to powder; Sylvia Plath
bookmarked with my love letter

If I could understand this, that would make me an actual poet or something. Had to give it a try when I saw the title on your list.... Congrats on your win in the contest. ~ gw

Thanks, Brenda) P.S.: There is an approach in computer science theory - LIFO (last in, first out), when the last one is processed first. In this sense, I'm a winner, indeed, - the first last winner)
