When I read poetry I take 3 steps.
1. I read it over and listen for the overall sound and feeling of the poem. If it makes an enjoyable read the first time without makeing your head hurt then its already decent, which I might add, your poem does.
2. I try and get the deeper meanings of the words and the way they are formed together, such as "Wastes deposited deep inside" I love that line. Im really envious that i didnt think of it first, that is assumeing I have the capacity to create somthing like that, which I do not think at this point in time i have.
3. I read it over again listening to the rythm and recognizing the meanings in each line and seeing the mental picture as i read each one.
Your poem made each read enjoyable. I absolutely love it. Keep up the good work. -10-
