I have to agree with you. My sibling is on her I-pad way to much watching Netflix and other stuff. I (on a week day) tend to spend between 2-3 hours on the TV or my desktop, while my sibling has about 10 hours! Her weekend times make my times look small. If I'm bingeing a show (10-12 hours) I get off after I finish mean while my sibling tends to spend 20 hours a day on her I-pad. It is crazy! Makes me feel old.
He almost looks like a little superhero, fighting the dark forces of the night with his own powerful moonbeams! For being such a dark shot, there's so much whimsy here!
So visceral... you're able to tell the story of this relationship not by toying around with emotions themselves but by employing vivid descriptions of more concrete qualities: the heady scent and touch and taste associated with this love. It leaves the reader in a delicately perfumed headspace. Lovely.
This comes together so well, almost like the words were cryptically but meaningfully written rather than chosen and pieced together. You clearly have a knack for blackout poetry, and I hope you keep experimenting with it!
As an aside, The Ballad of the Sad Cafe is one of my very favorite story collections. I first read it years ago after The Member of the Wedding, but it's probably time I sit down with it again! On my vintage edition is a woman with a devilish imp sitting on her shoulder; it's the only image I've ever truly considered getting a tattoo of. I've been trying to hunt down the artist for years, which isn't anywhere on the copyright page. Does your edition look like this too?: logan.shopopenbooks.com/product/130032/Ballad-Of-The-Sad-Cafe
