Dovina -
why does a poem need to be more than a simple flight of fancy? is it not a poem if it does not conform to the generally accepted "truth" of the day it was written? i hereby claim poetic license! :D
i guess it is akin to seeing a colorfully marked animal, vegetable, or mineral and saying how beautifully "painted" it is. as if there are little gnomes running around with brushes and actually painting the world we live in. this peoem is an expression and not mant to be sold as truth.

thanks for your comments; they are always welcome.
