spare and delicate. 'words that barely fit in the throat' - this is superb. G
Ditto to the previous comment. This is a sensuous, succinct piece. The line "words that barely/ fit in/ the throat" is indeed a keeper. Cheers. Have a blessed new year ahead.

Hi! Good blog here - great poems and images!
Creeley lives!
(I met him here in Auckland once BTW)...
I am going to link your Blog to mine (easier to get to for me and others can see it) - I have some interesting links on there (EYELIGHT) if you want to follow any of them up.
Cheers, Rcihard
Hi Amanda, this is great. The sparse layout really adds to the power to the image.
I love the ending too, the way it seems to go perfectly flat, and the 'swollen bulb to thumbprint' is great!

Nicely done. Like others have said, my favorite bit is the "words that barely / fit in / the throat" part.
i really liked this one Amanda... Its a different voice here... refreshing!
