Love in china

[sneaker]

You cup, we spoon
sunlight through bone,
crazed under the moon.

[barrie]

The title had me fooled. I like the play here - You cup, we spoon indeed.

sunlight through bone - Why not carry the bone china thing on in the next line? Instead of crazed, how about -

glazed under the moon - Just a thought.

Oh yes. Short and sweet- very sweet. Like it a lot.

I'd stick with crazed, though - that's what the moon can do. And does it, in china terms, actually mean broken?

Cheers

I must say this is very intruiging - the first line had me hooked.The last two blew me off! Terrific write.
Cheers.

Love this poem a lot.

Crazed is the right word to use I feel.... you can get glaze that appears cracked or crazed.


Porcelain you can see through - lovely imagery.

Sneaker, thank you. Oddly - for it's so very central - the way I'm reading it has 'bone' very lonely. Since the poem has only three lines its dissonance doesn't feel right... but I'll try rereading it a number of ways in order to have it fit. Zalina, x
