Maggot-Go-Round.
By Strataic
She--
Was Hal-f-
Torn.
When carousel
Cabinets; whirled
Ferociously around.
A mouse-
Of maggot--butterflies.
It seethes here...
She-- was just-
Rustling, her carrier-bag.
Weeps.
From useable filaments.

I actually felt that the hyphens didn't work for me. I found myself over enunciating... like "hal-eff", reading it as two separate words. I feel that there's too many hyphenations. I think the line breaks would be sufficient, sans hyphens.

Your structuring style lends well to this piece. The hyphenations help accentuate certain parts, 'Hal-f- Torn'...I like it, your writing is interesting and original. Poetic work here, cool post -NN
