Excellent!I needed to read this today! Thanks

nice sentiments..prepsre for bashing comments from others
It would present better if you did not try to get fancy with the spacing. This is not one of your better pieces.

Hmmm...I decided not to hate you after all...good piece

Rockmage, man-with-granite-skull, you still misses the point. A Zero or a Ten is nothing but a figure that states: now this is great, and this one is awful. A poster receives a zero and no comments and hasn't become any wiser. He cannot 'grow' from there because he doesn't know where he went wrong. YOU are not telling him. All he can tell from your zero, is the message 'Fuck off'.
Let's talk about me, for a change. A Zero for my amateur-poem 'The secondhand wait'. Granite principles or not, you cannot deny that my story is a par above stupidity, the mood isn't vulgar or carnavalesque, the descriptions and details are not raw and not caricaturistic. Whatever its shortcomings, it's not totally devoid of poetics. Now what your zero could mean, is 'this is trash and not a poem at all'. It could also mean (as you recently explained): 'this is a failed poem but don't let it get you down.'
You want, no, you INSIST people to grow and get better. ('It's my duty') At the same time, you, as a poem 'connosseur', refuses to explain to me in what way and where I fucked up my own poem. For some reasons you seem to think that the sheer sight of your zero will prompt me into a state of instant revelation and total insight into my own mistakes and, possibly, potential...
You are a remarkable man.

It gives for clear reading. I like the form. And the message goes WAY above my head...I vote a 5, which means: 'can't cope'
