lazy words

lust, light, 
love (the laziest of all)
won't appear

There feels like there should be more to this. Perhaps the story goes on. The poem is intriquing, though.

I agree that this doesn't work as a stand alone but in the context of the rest of the series - or even in this mini alphabet series - its nice to have some poems that vary in length.

i like that this is a snippet, but one invested with so much energy and emotion. (and agree with Ariel that it works within the context of the other poems)

I like it. They are indeed 'lazy words' and they don't lie..or, well...perhaps they do! he says ;-)
