"These violent delights have violent ends. And in their triumph die, like fire and powder. Which, as they kiss, consume."— Romeo & Juliet, Act II, Scene VI
Late September, Expat Lit accepted my Georges Bataille inspired poem ‘milk & eggs’. I made my debut there on Thursday evening. As you can see from the screenshot, it has done superbly! I have had a barrage of excellent feedback.
I will share a portion of the poem below, along with the link to the poem itself.
“oh, the hushed haemorrhaging of you. we must do away with old fashioned values. they call us lecherous and that may be true, but they are the liars.” – milk & eggs
