Question: Ever have to burst someone's bubble!? Thoughts on my work in progress!?
The Caller

She breathes confidence
A cool sauntering tone
Dispatching my mind
From its usual arrangement
It creeps through my receiver
Such a dismissive air
Forsaking the others
As mere afterthoughts
If only I could tell her
I know she is wrong
The days melt away
As does her sheen
A curious change
From what I thought
Was second nature
Her voice breaking
Racked with realization
Full of desperation
She knows she is wrong

The letter will soon confirm itWww@QuestionHome@Com

I like!. Try looking at removing "I know" from line 10!. To me it helps break better the thought before the next sequence!. And you last line maybe: "the letter will soon, arrive!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

The first four lines which i read made me feel like this poem should of been split into a four line stanza!. However, these lines are to me absolute perfection:-

She breathes confidence
A cool sauntering tone
Dispatching my mind
From its usual arrangement

I was hoping the rest of the poem would read like that!. However, i shall let these four lines continue to inspire me all day!. I have fallen in love with them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You have wrote three very creative lines here, which are written and happen to be my 3 favorite lines in your poem!

When I read it makes me feel, I want to go back and read it again, so I can feel it all over again!

She breathes confidence
A cool sauntering tone
Dispatching my mind

The line that says She knows she is wrong
I kind of thought it could sound better this way--She's wrong, she knows

I loved it!


Thought the poem was well constructed! Cheers!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

In the interest of not using wrong twice you possibly could change the last line!. I think it would fit better and keep the same meaning if you did something like this:

she admits she was mistaken

confirmation's in the mail!.

Overall I thought it was well doneWww@QuestionHome@Com
