Geneva
Arriving last night
into a war zone,
a blazing sauce pot
of sizable tensions
dark sentiments
with half-baked sweetness...
The three of you
each a world onto your own,
gravity by blood ties
tides and magnetism prevalent,
clashing and rupturing
your interactions necessary.
A wine and kiss for you,
a separation of the other two
negotiations: aloe vera to sunburn...
no further hostiles required.
you called me Geneva,
even a treaty with your exwife.

I think maybe you've read this out of context... Thank you for your comment though.

you're probably going to need to go with arrived, because it was last night so in the past. maybe even stick : after warzone
Arrived last night

maybe switch onto to unto
gravity by blood ties, ok so you're talking 'bout siblings or kids. the line itself though is over complicated (I think) maybe tethered by blood line or some such.
the last three lines of that stanza get very abstract in comparison with the rest of the body maybe have a think about simplifying it a little
last stanza like the first is very good though I think you could elaborate a little with the last line
all in though, an enjoyable read, fair play keep shinnin'

It’s called honest critique, and honest opinion ..based on a tiny knowledge of grammar and a small understanding of constructive suggestion. I’ve no doubt that the poet will read it in the spirit it was written. I spent a fair amount of time working out my thoughts here as I do with most of my honest critique

Nobody wants your grammar corrections. Get off your high horse. Enjoy the content for what it is.

why are you trying to make someone’s poem a battleground. if you have something to say and want an audience then start a thread and give me a piece of your mind.

I guess we could all
write each others poems
differently, but I think "arriving
last night" works well...
