Men

MEN Some men approach clouds with effortless silence- infusing skies along the way, transmitting indigo bouquet Some men drain ducts dark juice from depths of fractured- bitter dining table, while I digest their poison © Kim van Breda—June 2014

The very structure and style of this poem conveys much meaning Kim. Your love is the antidote. Sometimes its so hard to realize the symbiosis of others in our lives, but its there for us to have. Such wonderful gravity and ambiguity in few lines, that's efficient Art, and clarion emotions Kim. J.A.B.

I like to think I am in the first stanza. But I can understand the second stanza. I have known men who are wholly in the second stanza, so I can understand. I have known some women who are in there also. enough said. Well done, Kim.

Very deep and sad, Kim. You've surprised me with the imagery for this one. I didn't expect it and it shows your creative talent! Hugs
