“The Backs of Ducks”–a poem by me.
@missdibley gave me a list a words from her fic, Hammersmith–it’s a Jane Austen (Persuasion), Return to Cranford, modern AU mash up that’s sweet and sexy. I’ll be honest. I am a GINORMOUS Jane Austen fan, and Persuasion is my favorite Austen novel, so OF COURSE I would like a fic based on it. I think, though, that this poem is a little (a lot?) more melancholy than missdibley’s story, so I will probably write another poem (hopefully soon) that better reflects the end of the fic. I think the poem makes sense whether you have read the story or not.
tagging my poetry friends (and a few others). Please let me know if you want off this tag list–I know perfectly well that not all of you actually asked to be here. Please tell me if I am being a pest.
Or, you know, maybe you want me to add you to the list–I can do that, too 😉
