          | Thanks for responding. :) 
 ok...It was just a simple point in time type thing, but I see where you are going.
 
 What type of payoff do you generally look for in a poem?
 
 I guess I was only trying to convey a feeling.  Nothing more.  I see that it could seem "incomplete" for some people.
 
 I'll see if I can expand on it.
 
 Have you submitted anything recently?  This site needs some tlc from poem makers.

          | I liked the first few lines because I could keep the beat. 
 That must have been all you had going, because once I lost the beat, I hated it.

          | Hard to follow possibly because of the indentation.  I like a lot of the phrases, but I can't follow because of punctuation and spacing. |  |  |

          | I have a hard time reading "paragraph" poetry.  Take out 50 words, and split it up into somewhat rhythmic lines. |  |  |

          | Great poem!  I love the rhythm. I remember the poem about your legs.  One of my favorites!  This captures the same feeling. |  |  |

          | I personally like poems that give less details. Let the reader make his/her own conclusion.  Give them a feeling, not how you are feeling.  Lead them to the conclusion through visual messages. |  |  |
