You write, like a writer friend of mine writes, as though your words are pulled straight from your own marrow -- so that the reader feels every last word.

"Loss is another

word for undertow."

Yes I have someone who sings to me

"Inside and outside of the body"

His wet ringlets Brackish now

Bless you for making it known

seen heard felt from below

Hitting below the belt

Great poem. The rhythm is trance like the words pulling you along. The formatting of it helps too. Looking forward to reading more of your work.
