This imagery is comfortably grotesque, grotesquely comfortable, and the variations on the repetition really built a complex emotional touch. You captured a unique vibe here for sure!
I wish I could accurately describe the creeping unease of this poem but I fear it would take words that do not yet exist. House of Shedded Skin is beautiful in its strangeness, finding symbolism in pregnancy and potentially birthing, it is something to explore and attempt to gleam understanding of meaning. Well done Bence, another piece that I highly recommend.

That was the plan! Thanks for the comment
A dead place where things grow…
Love this observation, cheers Madeline!
It is a nothing indeed, everywhere and nowhere perhaps. Very nice Bence.
Perhaps somewhere in between?? Thanks Josh for the comment!
Yeah, I feel like this poem has only questions and hints so it felt appropriate to comment in the same style 😀
A sense of... not sure the right word...entropy? Inevitable decay? Interesting to ponder.
Interesting rumination Joseph, glad you liked it

Thank you so much for these kind words, I am glad the poem hit the spot for you, cheers for the restack!
This poem left me feeling all kinds of different things, that I wouldn't be able to explain! Marvelous Bence!
Sounds like my intention, thanks and happy you liked the poem Rasmus.
