what keeps us together by youtooblondie (PG)


Fandom: STARSKY AND HUTCH
Pairing: Starsky/Hutch
Length: ~200 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] youtooblondie
Author Website: youtooblondie at starskyhutch911
Why this must be read:

According to one definition, poetry is "the art of rhythmical composition, written or spoken, for exciting pleasure by beautiful, imaginative, or elevated thoughts." Well, this description fits [livejournal.com profile] youtooblondie's poems to perfection. Her work is lush and lyrical, sensual and evocative. They are, quite simply, exquisite word paintings of our beautiful boys.

I chose to feature what keeps us together for the utterly gorgeous use of language in passages such as:

what keeps us from falling
apart is falling into each
other's arms


and

into the long night we
hold and mend and heal
what through the long day
was run over and left for
dead
but really? Pick any of her poems at random, and you will find each one to be breathtaking and moving. Sometimes sad and wistful, sometimes intensely erotic, always rooted in love.

*Fabulous rec* for an astonishing and talented, sensual, gifted writer.

Thank you! I don't think I've read a poem I don't love from our own y2b.

oh, thank you SO much, my friend! what a wonderful honor you do me this morning- i am so grateful.
writing poetry and reading it as much as i do is about the one thing in my life that continually renews and refreshes me but to be able to share it, and to have others love it and then share it through something like this, really just does my heart good.
thank you again- i appreciate it so much. and what a great surprise as well!
