JohnDennyPoet The working subtitle to this was Falling in Love with a Beautiful Description ~ and Epyllia means 'little epics'. Its about being on love and what those words do to us. JD

JohnDennyPoet The final line is the key to understanding the poem.

JohnDennyPoet Perhaps to be more exacting its about a woman coming of age in the the world of Sexton and Plath.

JohnDennyPoet My first ever audioboo ~ this is From the Furies, an early recording of a poem taken from The Heartlands. Idea was a dark hymn to Francis Bacon's paintings. I added the 'I fail/I prevail' lyric in at the last minute because it was how I was feeling. Its a poetic drama.
