Fuzzy Math, by Aaron Feit
The light of candles,
Wasted wax.
Micro-managing bosses,
Missed subway trains.
Wine, desecrated - neglected
Marinade instead of prelude to a kiss.
Salon appointments that run long.
A man, a woman...shaking the night apart.
Between "Lost" text message episodes.
A greater love than ever there was.
A love that never was.
rejoicing in flight, but terrified too...
exposing one's self to the bittersweet light of many days.

Very nice, indeed. You have created and intriguing, poetic mix of imagery leading to varying impressions, which for me, culminated with the final poetic image that I perceive as the overarching impression to which all the others before it contribute: "the bittersweet light of many days".

I really have never published/posted any poetry of mine before, and I am glad you all dug it to some degree. I often feel that most won't get...me.
Peace,
