    —SUSAN CONSTABLE

    Fun feeling of two people out a little too late, or too early if it's 3am or later after a club. I guess the two parties might be wonderfully friendly and sentimental, rather than argumentative. Gosh, have I heard so many late night/early morning arguments outside various places I've lived! :-)

    I like your fragment 'lopsided moon'. Don't think I've seen that used before. Works so well with your phrase. Very nice!

    Thanks for popping by, Dan. I'm glad you find 'lopsided moon' effective.

    Susan, great poem! I love how fresh "lopsided moon" is for the fragment. Arguments can be such a delicate balancing act, and you've captured that quite well here.

  17. Susan Constable Says:

    Thanks so much, Cyndi. It's so difficult to remain objective!
