    Yes, I agree with Silly Sydestix up there. That was most definitely my favorite part. I'm not much of a poetry critic, so I couldn't tell you with an informed ...

    This was really good. I'm not much of a poetry writer myself, so I can't really critique, but I do like the use of periods rather than commas. Each is ...

But if you skip the first part, it'll ever evade you.
