Here’s my “in your face” poem:

Here’s my contribution. It’s inspired by a face I’ve known for some years that belongs to a life I’ve always suspected is tinged with a certain loneliness. But I digress…
Along the Lines of Her Eyes

Oh, and it’s way late but here’s my food-related poem for last week’s prompt: the return
This was one of my earliest poems, but one that I’m most fond of.
This is my contribution. =)

I’d like to think I’m saving up my poetry juices for NaPoWrMo or maybe for spring…it’s been a dry month poetically (not for prose tho!)
Or it could be I’m lost in the poems by detainees from Guantanamo as I prepare to read a few next month with fellow poets and peace activists.
Anyway, it’s not my face but someone else’s here:
“Wounded by the Strangeness”
