    Love the short, punchy feel of this! "Life in minor keys" perfectly sets up the vibe of contradictions, and "squelching melodies" adds a cool, unexpected twist. It’s like a quick snapshot of life’s complexity!

  • Oh wow, your cover image! Loved your poem!

    What a tantalizing tree ... it branches in strange directions, forking at unlikely points within the mind of the reader. Great job.
