I really don't like the ending last two lines, so I'd like some feedback on how to make atleast those better.

cheers CL

Muse
Muse Circle v.2

roving touches
faint to dust
on my skin
rough kisses plaster
themselves
to my aching heart
an angel with battle-scarred wings
sighs fondly in my embrace
my inspiration-
alive
but breaking under
repeated abuse
like the Wall, she ruptures
with pride, hate and longing
but most of all fear
Goodbye, Lenin she remarks
to me
coddled in my
western cloister
rummpled and brittle
are the wings that
once sparkled with ambition
cracked are the pale lips
that once spoke the melodies
of
a charmer
lost is she now
my muse
for she’s run along
musing
Fraser: Stop stealing the blanket.
[Diefenbaker whines]
Fraser: You're an Arctic Wolf, for God's sake.
(Due South)

Hatter: Do I need a reason to help a pretty girl in a very wet dress? (Alice)

Very good. You really did the enjambment well.

Overall it was awesome! I really enjoyed it, but towards the end the poem lost its rhythm and fell apart. Maybe you should keep the same length phrases throughout the whole poem.



Every time I’ve gotten feedback that was hard to take it was usually hard to take because there was truth in it and I didn’t like that (or didn’t want to receive it). That’s not to say all harsh feedback is good or that we should be harsh for harshness’ sake, but learning to absorb truth without letting it break your inner core/break you is a lifelong skill that keeps your mind elastic and open to learning.
