Hi. " Will not flut" mirrors " thing stays shut" in that line. I shortened it for the sound. - Jenny

1 – i sent your poem title and name out to a bunch of my PH friends (along with other titles from MyPoemList) . i now see your comment (below) about " flut" ; you are forgiven. just DON'T do it again! ! " form men and women, dogs" ...it sounds like you are equating men and women to dogs. well there ARE A LOT (ok, some) similarities. i married a once.

" and when I woke, I was inside the book.." this snuck up on me and gave me a good sharp laugh! i only found " flut" as a noun: " (often followed by `of') a large number or amount or extent" [not glut? ? ] " flit - move swiftly and lightly." You seem happy? ? with your fate. who will join you? to MyPoemList bri :)

Thank you for reading! I used " flut" as a shortened form of flutter. (Confusing, sorry!) . - Jenny
