Adam- I liked the flow of this poem, but I really don't much like the rest of it. Too much repetition and redundency. The rhymes were kinda simple as well. Didn't really grab me. *shrugs*
I think you could do some good to try and drop the need to so much.

Anyways, I understand cause I'm definately more of a poet than a storyteller. Keep at it though, practice makes perfect!
