what a sad and lonely image…
I saw that the other day. Never occurred to me to write a poem about it.
Well done, James.
this actually made me smile.
I this it was “desicated” and “skitters.”
🙂
I’m a fan of “desiccate” and it is wonderful with skitters and the butterfly.
Thanks, y’all. I’m glad the word choice in this went over so well. I like “dessicated” as well and have to resist the urge to over use it.
