Caribbean Poetry Contest #1 – First Place
by Linette Rabsatt
inferences are really up to the perceiver who's getting the message
because the communication process is always puzzling
even mesmerizing, depending on who is speaking
if you're attracted to the speaker
the inferno in your heart
will make you blush
quietly squinting
enamored
in love
