I, too, thought it was pro-faith and anti-institution, but this woman whose letter to the editor was in the paper today was all, "It'll turn your children into ATHEISTS." It ...

I think movies are always worse than the books, except in the case of LotR, which had exceptional movies...they may not have followed the books as well as I wanted ...

Worms.

It IS cheesy. I think a lot of things here need to be clarified. I'm confused as to the relationship between the speaker "I" and subject "you". This would really ...

It's awfully, awfully abstract. And also really cliche. To be brutally honest, I think the best thing you can do for this poem is put it out of its misery. ...
