What is truer than truth? Novel! And someone must die! ... intensive idea. Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
Hmm nice and moving piece my friend. Its beautiful I am speachless
I love the brashness of this writing, Anne. It is stark and defiant, your stanzas like fingers poking in my chest as you speak your mind. The sharpness of the imagery in the stanzas of the fly and the butterfly augment the repetition of the the call for someone's death, almost as if a crowd is crying out for blood. This poem strikes like a series of punches. Another fine piece, Anne
Reading a good novel at deep night can lead one to such a dark place! Virginia Woolf said 'Someone must die' in the movie The Hours, and the poet died. Thank you.
Do not touch my web! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
It's remarkable how you assume responsibility for this prediction ONE MUST DIE. Instead of seeing it as a technical issue in novel writing, you approach it as a moral issue that you must confront or betray your sense of what's right. Your poem doesn't say this directly - I'm interpreting your feelings and actions in the poem.. The fact that you are rescuing a fly from doom may seem trivial to some readers. I took it as a fable of how serious you are to protect innocence.
