Wow!
yes, this brings in one of the most powerful yet seldom acknowledged poetic skills, the sense of smell which links directly to the amygdala, the repository of memory in the human brain.

oh, this wan't linked to the workshop,
was that why you couldn't post another poem?

You might well understand...
if you are a Killer fan, why this one appeals to me. It brings to the table; the emotion of eating an animal that once was alive. I wonder if this is why people become vegetarians? Nice work!

Weirdelf & Geezer
Thank you both for taking time to visit this page, read and comments. Coming from accomplished poets like you is inspiring. I think I have created enough between the lines space for readers to make their own perception which I believe is one of the objectives of Sunku and its aesthetics.
Will keep my effort to get better versed with this new emerging form

try posting to the workshop
instead of pressing the issue.
Do you really need to post a poem every day?

Simply put. This is a choice
Simply put. This is a choice I have made. I am not pressing for anything. I think i am allowed to post 1 poem every 23 hours as per the rule book...
