UNTITLED #2

Waded feet skirt the wind,
Hot winds blow, unhindered.
The sun shines;
Unaccustomed boats flee towards the shore.;
The heat driving them home.
The sea is a big boiling broth;
The scant sky is naked
The gulls perspire in fight,
Many fall to the water hoping to cool;
fools, many burn their flesh.
Idiosyncrasy of lunatics,
Absence of sense in the grand council of gulls,
Those fly circles for food.
Scathed, loathsome, scavenging mongrels– these gulls.
Fish, shrimp, crab and gulls,
All shall perish one day.
What we are, we are not.
What we are not, we are.

Wow. That was amazing. It had a very good feel to it, I couldn't see any mistakes really, but I'm not the best at spotting them. Keep up the good work, you are talented.

No, it's not that you didn't succeed. You accomplished a lot, but, if you want to touch people, don't concentrate so much on rhyme and metre. Think more about what you want to say instead of how you're saying it.
