This is different from what I have come to expect. An interesting viewpoint to a life's situation, but in poetry. I think I prefer the stories to the style of poem chosen here, but it is not bad.. just unexpected as I said

This is a really cool poem. Undertones say much. Passion, especially that which involves forbidden love, overwhelms reasoning. it always has devastating aftereffect.

Very sonnet-like, Mikey. When the cat's away, the mice will play. The main problem with that particular theory here is that owls -- wise or otherwise -- love to eat mice, as it were. And by the sound of things, this philandering Romeo is going to be made to eat crow one day, and very soon.
Good rhyming paired with an awesome presentation. That photo of the owl and the mouse is gr-r-r-r-r-e-a-t!

You hung by your finger tips scared to death and the irony is, come daylight you were only inches from the ground, mud and everyone is blowing their car horns, laughing.

The owl knows all! Those eyes burning holes were holes of guilt, no doubt.
Your poem is perfectly rhymed, Michael, and your meter is spot on. You've used great alliteration with stares/sneak; seems/secrets; first/fevered; seemed/stars. I was especially entertained by your third stanza :)
"I dove through bedroom window; he yelled 'SCUM!'"
Well done, my friend! Take care. Alana

I love the picture. I love the poem The wise owl knew what would happen. You pushed carnal life too far. That last part should have learned you to keep away. The lust should die pretty fast. Then maybe you will not. Great work. I know the poem is not biographical.

Flawless form on this one. You have this meter down cold. Your rhyme is always perfect. Great use of language to tell your story. This reads beautifully out loud. So exceptional!

What is done in the dark always comes to light. A well done sonnet form
were those few moments of pleasure worth the lifetime o bad memories?
Well paired picture and poem
