Hi, Frank, your poems really light up my world. I am an Chinese college student. Last week we learned a new phrase “a flash in the pan”, here’s a poem I composed titled with that. Hope you like it and maybe you ca give me some comments. Thank you!
I wish I were a slice of light,
Upon your lip,
Stamp my sojourn until late night.
Across your face spread a sign,
Beneath your lie,
Left my steps over skyline.
When Luna in a dress of starry perfume,
In saecula saeculorum,
Ignored the elephant in the room.
All that flushed the best-laid plan,
No more than,
Dwelt within a flash in the pan.
I like that very much

Frank, to set a trap,
for the night crawler,
just use some gin.
