Creased by you
Walking through the tangled
Tatters of my belief
Steeling my-self for what is to come
Christmas lights and warm décor
Honestly festive atmosphere
Lacking but one thing
You, You rumple me
My starched and stiffened self
Creased by you

yes sometimes you just wnaant the one you love to rumple you
Unlike Sheilagh I saw being rumpled as being crushed, altered and hurt as your character realized her failings. I loved the phrase "tangled tatters of my belief."
It is interesting how our own experiences determine how we interpret a poem isn't it. You've used the three words this week well.
Nither is wrong...thank you for comming by.
I feel rumpled and creased too. In a good, poetic way of course :)
Good work, my friend.
Really great. I see some of my own holiday anxiety captured there. Thank you, Chris.
Nicely meaningful use of the 3 words...
Are we fresh linen then...without another? Funny how rumpled I feel, yet alone. Merry Christmas!
Thank you all! I hope you all have a merry Christmas or whatever you celebrate.
@ wine...I think I am more like worn wool

Aw, I've had one X-mas like that! Lucky me, it was only one.
Wonderful "crease".

This is hands down one of my very favorite pieces of yours. It's wrenching. At least to me.
