hmm makes u think!.!.!. (thats what i love about poetry btw! haha)
to me hes describing "Lovers" as 2 moths which eventually grows and turns into a butterfly!. the "electric" he talks about is that spark of fire or electric felling when u find love!. the ashes is when its almost the end and its sort of dying out like photographs, after they're developed, in a blue light!.
idk just my mixed up perception of this intricate poem!. hahaWww@QuestionHome@Com

I liked the idea, but the broken text was annoying and hard to read!.

e e cummings made a lot of this kind of thing work, but most people when they try that it doesn't work maybe because we're not e e cummings!? I don't know!.


for whatever reason!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Its so broken that the meaning is lost in the fragments!.
