Response to Trista's Free Write, Week 2

I love the concept of this poem draft as it takes an unlikely domestic space and subverts it into an unlikely connotation of a rather sensual subject. The expansion of the draft could imply a more detailed understanding of the couple itself and how the fetish metaphor came to pass. The concept, it seems, remains more objective to the relationship between Martha and her husband. Also, perhaps a tighter ending to the draft could create many possibilities for the poem, perhaps by inserting rare instances of the husband’s perspective among other ideas. The images of the domestic could connote towards the ideal of the nifty fifties era and the subversive poetry coming out of that time, the most obvious being Plath and Sexton as offhand examples.
