All Comments on 'A Newton Moment'

You really get inside the lives to an amazing degree with these simple words.

it seems like such a miraculous thing and in some ways maybe it is.

I love this phrase:

~wouldn't leak her defeat

from balconies

no more~

Plus you have the whole Romeo/Juliet balcony thing going on behind the scenes,

A delightful piece

Thank you

Wonderful images ("black cup and a purple thought", etc) and gravitational theme work beautifully together here draw this poem down to a single wet thought in the reader's palm. Outstanding work, Liar.

Newtonian moments, Einsteinian logic make for a wonderful poem. :clap clap:

and a great title / a rich and enjoyable read /

If I had left you a comment when I had first read this poem, the mercury in my little thermometer might not have been so high. I have read this half a dozen times since you posted it, and each time liked it more. I especially enjoyed these lines:

"and the dot

of my green iris

found a flooded mirror"

Thank you for your poem. It's beautiful.

...would the serpent still have smiled? I liked this, Liar, because the images flowed nicely off my tongue, and my mind was engaged at the same time.

With the verses running from three to five lines, I had to ask, "Why didn't he make them all four lines long?"

exquisite imagery

Not really great, but doesn't really blow. Just so so

ZZZZzzzzzz....
