    I’ll always check the roses for snakes in future! It is bad enough with biting insects but now you tell me it is even more dangerous. What a vivid imagination you have Sanaa.

    Your poem makes me want to reread Carmilla. Love the eeriness, the shock, the things are not says but are so clear…

    Moody and dreamlike, in a wonderfully unsettling way.

    Blistering the forearm of fear is a powerful image.. perhaps symbolic? if not literal..Another impassioned and bold poem 🙂

    ‘rosebuds kiss the tender inwards of her hands’ – I have never trusted roses and your eerie poem will ensure that I never will, Sanaa! Much love, Kim x
