Re:Poem for feedback - 06/28/2007
This poem abandons meter--but not to its detriment.
As a rule, I will read a poem twice forward. The first time, I try to soak up the essence of the words. The second pass is for the details I missed. Then, I read it backward. Reading a poem forward will not as easily reveal gaps in thought. But, reading it backward, they stand out like throbbing thumbs. To me, at least.
However, this poem had no gaps I could find. I think it is an anomaly in that right.
Well done.
