i love this! it sounds like something i would like to say to my little sister, or to a dear friend.

Don't let anything fragile
happen to you in my town.
!!god i love this. what a first line! i love how "my town" sets up the whole tone of the poem.

i also love that a cigarette can be half drained. and the word clandestine. people should use that lovely word more :)

i would think about ending it after "we need to talk about something" but, as always, it's yours to do with as you like.

this was beautiful, thanks.

thank you dear. your comment made my day brighter. i actually wrote the poem for a friend almost exactly a year ago before she was leaving to study in italy for a semester. she's a hard-core chain smoker and one of those loud-all-the-time sort of people. i have this weird love-hate relationship with her, which i feel guilty about.

It's been so long since you've posted any poems. If you have anything new, it would be great if you would share! Do you have a new site? I hope that we can read some more of your wonderful poetry soon!
