David WakehamNew #poem - something completely different from me for upcoming #InternationalNonBinaryDay
Caterine Vauban@wakehamAMR WOW! Exquisite! This has such a fine quality to it. I'll be honest; I micro-balked at the lullaby lulling us to sleep tautology. Other than that, you have given me a new standard to aim for! Thank you đ Do you have any particular influences? Tennyson, perhaps?
@caterinevauban Thank you. I apologise for the micro baulk. I will initiate a rewrite and see if I can maintain the rhythmic and sonic framework.
TBH, I wrote it at around 2 AM this morning in an insomnia-induced session of hyperfocus.
Whilst I do indeed have influences, the main inspiration came from listening to an old CD of a performer I used to see regularlyâWendy Rule's album Zero.
@caterinevauban I couldn't let your comment go. It was an itch my spicy brain had to itch. What do you think of this couplet instead?
Artemisâ arrows aim prestigious,
Safely we dance under a moonlit aegis
