Ya, I’m not technical about anything. By stand alone what do you mean? It’s on it’s own line. Do you mean it should have a period? I feel weird about punctuation in poetry. For me it’s all by feel. The rhythm of it works for me even if it’s uneven but I could play with it. Mind you I wrote this very quickly. I’m not really serious about poetry it’s sort of like a fun thing to do for me vs narrative which is like giving birth. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment.
Poetry / plasmatic
plasmatic
sacral stirrings
spit scarlet obscenities
graffiti the tile
with exclamation
points of revelation
pelvic declaration
of power and despair
bless the fair, young
pussies that bleed
pink and taste
like cherry cola
Eve was one them
the blood thickens
with age and slaves
to the cycle curse
the moon and the
empty womb
Nipples are for babies
lovers are for losing
the contents of the uterus
not always of our choosing

empty? eat a cashew. that always makes me feel fat, which counteracts empty. if you really want to fill the void, get a honey roasted cashew. or have sex.
good imagery, original language choices. my personal preference leans away from the half rhyme (i think it’s called). or kind of randomly rhyming. but that’s just me.
vivid description. although the title fits the subject i think you could wring more out of the poem with a title that adds to the overall understanding of what you’re communicating. which i’m taking as a kind of poetic complaint about the effects of aging on femininity and the physical aspects included. am i misinterpreting?
ah, the plight of the female in a society where men masturbate to a pre-teen Hannah Montana.

I like it. I don’t know much about poetry but I think it could use some work with the physical form. In the middle the reading speeds up the way it is presented right now. ”Eve was one of them” should stand alone I think.
