Sorry, just realised the above post looked really flippant.

I don’t consider myself a poet even, so i wouldn’t expect to be mentioned in the same decade as Keats or Milton, let alone the same breath.

Oh god neither do I!!!!!!

For a start off, they are both men :wink:

Thanks for the critique Amphibian.

I suppose I don’t analyase what I write, I just write it. So to see it dissected is a bit unnerving. This was written about a specific moment in time.. one that meant something purely to me.

I have never had any expectation of what other people might think of my scribbles, but if some like them, that is wonderful, if others don’t, that is equally valid. I don’t post them on the boards for any kind of validation. I suppose if I was being precious about it, I might find a web site where real poets post their work, but I was never one to “join” in that sense.

And all in all, I think 5/10 is pretty bloody good :D :D :D

Thanks Amphibian. xxxx

I know I’m not alone in saying that you are a very fine poet indeed :) .. Like myself, Poshy is a great fan of your work – and just tonight we had a grand little chat about just how talented you are :) .. Your poems are thoughtful and extremely well put together. I am particularly impressed with how your final lines always pack quite a punch.. Always seem to challenge the very perspective of what has gone on before. The curious tragi-irony of your most recent “A dream” being a most wonderful example!

Looking forward to more…

This is a very difficult and emotive subject.

Why do people comitt such dreadful crimes in the first place?

Have they all had similar things done to them? I wonder what percentage have normal backgrounds, have not been abused, but at some point start to abuse children?

And that wasn’t a rhetorical question, if anyone knows i would like to find out.
