Poetry / XY, XY (Analysis)

Purest vision, Fanatical following. How the planets move, X. Ears rush past, A thunderous fluttering Reverberates, but never truly copies. Breathing deeply Not breathing at all The paradoxical state of control. The body does not belong to Y. Celestial being, Awaiting true love's first kiss? (X) As certain as snow. Secrets cannot be told. Why?

Good read, and good meter.  I can’t add too much.

thunderous fluttering Reverberates, but never truly copies. – not seeing the significance in the capitalized Reverberates.  maybe this is due to the poem structure.

One final thought.  The poem is titled “XY, XY”  in the poem, X,Y and X exist.  I wonder if you can work that final “Y” from the title in there.  Your casual reader will never notice, but those that seek to appreciate poetry in all it’s symbolic glory certainly will…

The title was inspired and so unusual that I had to read it as soon as I saw it.

I’m not sure of the plot, but it seems to be a genetic.  We are definitely not copies of our parents.  I thought your poem intellectually stimulating.
