Bridget Jones and 'emotional fcukwittage'! :) This is very, very good- cruelly so. Such a simple sentence - so many possibilities and interpretations. So many things he could have wanted her to do...and we'll never find out, never know what regrets, sufferings and humiliations those around us carry inside...
I liked this peice a lot more than "Pretend it's Candy" They were both thought provoking peices but this takes the cake in my mind for sure. I woman being subdued by a man who is using false love as a way to get into her pants. I'm sure it happens everyday and it is so sad that nothing is really done about it. These girls are losing their virginities because they are self-conscious. They want love and they think that this is the only way to get it. I believe that the entertainment industry has a lot to do with it. They show sex in such an innocent fashion that children loose all their passion for love and go headfirst into a life bound by sexual activity. I think this, although short, pinpoint this delimma plagueing our nation. You put your ideas out without being to bluntly deturbing about it and your poem was still good. I liked it honestly , my favorite part was the last line, it really brings the poem to such a great and honest closure. Thanks for the read and the thoughts.
