  • Dramatic Poetry Re: I died on Salem Bridge

    Gorgeous. Brad seems to have stolen my comments before I even thought of them, so I'll leave my comment at that. Also, I'm a big proponent of punctuation in poetry, ...

    The Paladin of Punctuation strikes again! The first thing I noticed about this was, quite predictably, how you used punctuation. It's a typical mistake for young poets, and one quite ...
