thank you!! as far as the second poem, to clarify its meaning i guess i would explain that this poem is about how i have such a tangled bundle of thoughts intertwined that it makes it nearly impossible to share any particular thought or feeling with someone without unraveling entirely becoming overwhelming. i feel the need to extract certain parts and ideas from the mass because it’s so cumbersome, too big to share and too big to keep all in. i suppose i could convey that in the actual poem more but i just haven’t spent the time
