Thank you! When I wrote that I was thinking of autumn trees at golden hour and how they look so alive as the suns shines on them. They are brought to life through an illumination so bright its almost painful.
This is lovely, thank you! I do pay a lot of attention to how I format my poems and the words I use. With the "arteries" I was trying to draw a comparison between the human body and the body of a tree. I placed the "hangs off" at the end of the line like that because I enjoy when the visual matches the words. I'm glad the details paid off and you like it!
Very effective use of rhetoric here with the "fact: ..." Doesn't pull any punches. It's the best kind of rhetoric... the kind that strips away all sophistry, the kind that forces you to come into contact with reality.
I love this so much! "The sun burns me/ illumination" what a transendent and terrifying truth. You are so right ... that is what it is to be "almost, almost" human.
This is beautiful! How did you take the picture? How did you get the yellow glow?

So earnest --- just like the Neruda quote. Thank you for writing what we feel --- for leaving it raw.
