‘like a savage butchery of war, were still strangely perfect’ is chilling. You expose how violence & beauty collide in these fragments. #KeepWriting#PoemsAbout#Mannequin
Oh, I love this poem...it is powerful! The imagery is an explosion in my mind! I love the lines, "savage butchery of war," "strangely perfect, though just pieces!" And the strong turn at the end...so, so, good!
John, Right from the beginning a slam in the face with effective brash words 👏👏👏. Love it❣️ "The David is a dickless white guy salvaged from a JCPenny anchor store"
“We make them, these bodies, to look like us, then try to look like them.” 💯 Like how your poem dismantles an image… just like the mannequin’s been dismantled.
