Thanks, Kristin. I had in mind the saying that an addiction is "cunning, baffling and powerful." It will always wait, and try to seduce. But it means to kill.
Thanks, Bros, for this and for all of your comments. I'm glad you like the last line, I thought perhaps it was too soft, but after all, it is a seduction.
Twin, thank you. A short poem by a tall girl lol.
Hi Shadow, in my sometimes loopy world, a diet coke poem is anything about recovery or addiction, since diet Coke is the strongest thing I drink anymore. ;-)
Brief but deep as the ocean ... interestingly I never thought of Medea as being patient, I dont know why .. I love how you make me work at thinking ... xo
I like this one, Shay. A great deal :)

ReplyDeleteUntil I read your comment, I had forgotten about a possible addiction angle with Medea. That's a whole different slant from my first reading!
