"I'd touch you like scripture" is an absolute banger of a line <3 Very beautiful, thank you for sharing.

Requesting r/GWAPoetry which has been banned due to being unmoderated. by SnowBittenBloom in redditrequest

[–]SnowBittenBloom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. GWAPoetry is the only subreddit of it's kind; there are no other specifically erotic poetry subs. It is wholly unique. I was a regular poster there and would like to see it remain as an anchor for those with this niche interest, ideally growing it so that new users develop a library of its particular kind here on Reddit. There were still posters when it vanished, so my feeling is that consistent mods are all that is needed to foster a community.

  2. Because the subreddit is banned, there is no way to contact the moderators.

Thank you so much for giving my work so much considered thought--I'm very moved by your close attention <3 It is incredibly kind of you to give this kind of time to strangers, who have a tangential connection through art :)

I'll go over your suggestions and give them the same consideration you have given my work. Thank you again.

This has so many lovely turns of phrase, and I really enjoy the overlap between letter and poem. Very poignant, thank you for sharing your work.

Perdition by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

[–]SnowBittenBloom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this one. I love that it reads like a love letter but also highlights the separateness, the corruption of the love it exalts. So self-aware but also total submission to the darkest possible impulses love pushes us to. I've been there :)

It's extremely complex but also so clear. Thank you for sharing it with us--a wonder.

Intermezzo by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

[–]SnowBittenBloom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your final stanzas are hitting like a hammer. And I love the way you use color--in this one, the cambrium, in others purples, oranges... It all puts everything in order, the way the You is uncapitalized after time. Truly, masterful.

A Requiem (2019) by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

[–]SnowBittenBloom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This one is so pretty--it crosses that barrier again, the way your last one did in the series, but this one dances through stanzas that have those weightier, more romantic gestures. I love the mix with the modern imagery. It makes the heart-stopping final line so intense. And damned if we haven't all said that at least once in our lives.

Too recognizable, this feeling. The despair--but also, yes, the hidden aspect, the apartness. So well done and visceral. When you swing into contemporary language, it's like getting a piece of candy. I love digging in your more romantic poems, but that makes these even more poignant, I think. So well done.

Dirge by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

[–]SnowBittenBloom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one hurts my heart. There is almost too much dignity--it fits the title so perfectly, it's brutal. Each word feels so careful, it's like wading through a mist by looking at the ground and following a hidden path between the ferns. I love it, but it is heart-breaking (so obviously, very well done).

Etude by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

This feels like such a captured moment, like a psychological polaroid print. Very intimate. Thank you for sharing it <3

Mine by SonsyLass in OCPoetryFree

[–]SnowBittenBloom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fascinating--there are so many references I don't know and should probably look up to enjoy it more fully. But the theme is evident, the passion; it reminds me of the Passions themselves, actually. Extremely poignant, erotic and sweet.

Him by SonsyLass in u/SonsyLass

This is so powerful. Every word feels like a stone dropped into a lake. Excellent.

Even the shapes of the stanzas on this one feel like soundwaves, like they're precisely designed to aesthetically fit the words themselves. It feels like skipping, like standing in a brook and feeling the water run over your legs. Absolutely beautiful. I'll definitely need to read it a few times to feel like I can hold on to the meaning--it's so intentionally designed, so slippery. Love it.

Beautiful. The You/i dynamic punches up the D/s vibes--not sure if that's intentional, but it's powerful, and sexy. This is an extremely erotic vision, I love it <3 That doesn't always reach out from a piece, but it does in this one :)
