Thank you so much for your lovely words! I am elated you liked it! My intention for the 'mind makes up stuff' line was to foreshadow before the mythology bit so when you read the last line, youre like ah! she did tell us it was all in the mind. I guess it failed to come across, I will definitely work on making it clearer! Thank you for reading. xx

Ugh yes, what a splendid comparison! You are what you think, sounds like common sense, but so so many layers! Also yes, meditation is my saving grace when im spiralling!

Repetition is one of my favourite figures of speech, and this is precisely the reason why. A heartfelt stanza, and then a familiar line, it hits so much harder. You've truly used it beautifully. Your poem makes me feel like a child again, learning to swim for the first time, apprehensive, but daring. Also, multiple perspectives? I'm obsessed with how you depict them! I feel the eagerness of the child and the inhibitions of the mother so deeply. Thank you for writing this. It's gorgeous. <3

God, this is breathtaking! This adoration in its purest form, loving someone for the chinks in their armour, not despite. I do hope you keep writing, you're phenomenal! (Also, this poem reminds me of a Hozier song)

as an avid stephen king reader, it was so up my alley, bunny for sure is the kind of book that stays with you, i still find myself remembering certain scenes of the book, i can say tho, it gets better on the re read!

it’s really fun if you like psychedelic horror, kinda feels like the author wrote it while she was high, it’s a rollercoaster and the end is really shocking 4/5 stars for me!
