This one made me smile, despite whatever reaction it was in fact meant to produce. There was a hint of psychotic predisposition that added to the sorrow it carried, and the image of that set off a sort of cackle in my mind. Of course, aside from psychosis, you did really well to make it more of a realization than an obsession.
"He who takes a life...it is as if he has destroyed an entire world....but he who saves one life, it is as if he has saved the world entire" Talmud Sanhedrin 4:5

That.was.beautiful.
I loved this poem - the images and the way you descriped your feelings, the way they ran so equally with mine and everyone else's experiences...it was perfect. I've always loved your writing, but still, it never fails to blow me away.
Sorry, there's nothing constructive from me, again.....
