I think I'm getting tyred. Is that possible?

From a very non-technical standpoint, this is an enjoyable piece. The reversals in the first stanza pulled me in and intrigued me right away, with the last line closing the deal so to speak. It added an element of drama to the scene being portrayed, and it flowed on without a hitch (with perhaps the exception of the already mentioned "bleeding-chapped" which gave me pause).

I fully admit to being a complete neophyte to the deeper workings of poetry, though I am, as Baron stated, one of the ones who buys. I may not be a poetic technician, but I definitely enjoy this piece for its own sound and feel. Well done Eiji.

gaa, it's too early to be talking about snow.

enjoyed this, though I think it could be structured more effectively
by allowing the extent of the N's predicament to be revealed more gradually.

Thanks JR. I see where you're coming from. (I don't know if I feel like taking all the time to change it though!) I could just make the end the beginning and the beginning the end...
