Memory now sees her without a body, in whose eyes I see a glimpse of her, mixed in the glass of me.
A bottle of pure love quite suddenly, being poured out in my head, becomes poison, hurting, in streams of red.

I really like the phrase "into the glass of me" and I also like "hurting, in streams of red". Actually, I really like this whole poem. When I first read it it kind of reminded me of Frost's "A Dust of Snow" for some weird reason. Totally different poems but the feeling's the same I guess. Anyway. I really like your poem is what I meant to say.
Thanks for the kind response. Believe it or not, that poem took ages. But, yes, by the end I really liked it myself, and I'm glad you did too. It's a universal feeling I suppose, unfortunately. It felt kind of therapeutic.
Hello Stephen, I'm your bird from Camera Obscura - you remember - the one that accused you of being a swinger. Just thought I would drop ye a line sayin' how much I look forward to slaggin' ye again in Belfast, ya pervert ye!
