Such an anticlimax to such a busy piece. It works very well though.

Yes, the anticlimax - it doesn't organically emerge from the piece; yet, it brings out the freshness the lack of which the poem laments. Just thought I'd note it. This is another beauty, Jack.

Hey Jack, been a while since I was here. This is the first piece I've read in my return and I have to say, a nice 'welcoming piece'. It was great, no criticque's from me. It has me wondering why I left in the first place. Nice one Jack.

This reads okay in terms of content but seems to deserve a little more rhythm.

Baron, I'm currently looking at the rhythm.

Does the 'anti-climactic' ending dteract? I did have another stanza but it read too disjointed and angsty with a hint of my old friend, 'rant'

thanks for the pointers so far

Jack

I don't have a problem with the ending, Jack. Just so long as it does what you want it to. As for rant, there's just so much... Edge can keep churning out rants and get away with it but his rap style lends to that.

It probably helps that he doesn't post as many as I did
