This is excellent, Parker. Love it.
Thanks, Kathy!
Like this a lot, it's cryptic and very full for such a small space of writing
This has a wonderful rhythm to it, it reads liked poetry.
Thank you both! I'm glad it reads full and like poetry :)
I love the rhythm to this piece. Nice writing, I really enjoyed it. I remember seeing your work up at A-Minor. I’ll have to check out more of your stuff soon!
Thank you, Kari!
