BlueYoshi Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Well, this is certainly a change from the sort of stuff I usually see around here lol. I'm no expert at this, but one thing I did notice while reading your poem was a lack of rhythm, as in I had to pressure myself into continuing reading on. Still, I like how basic it is; not very compelling, but one thing for sure, there is a meaning deep down, which I never get around to working out. Maybe someone else should have a shot at it.
