Dear SB,

This poem "Invalid Item"  was quite revealing and eye opening and a villanelle. I thought I could see those lines weaving through so manic and fantastic!

Really, despite the description line which told it all, there wasn't much more from me to draw from this other than the richly textured, rhythmic and rhyming words woven so seamlessly that really made this a enjoyable read, despite subject.

There were a lot of complexities in those syllables but you managed to pull it off. What I understand about this condition seems me to indeed be about 'dark pleasures' and prostrate? It could be from going mad, the condition laid out in description. I would hardly associate as poetic.
