Yes there is an ear in hearing and an I sight

I think you are pushing for the comment though.

'common courtesy you use' transposed verbs are really a sign that the poet hasn't put in the required effort, as BWC said a few poems up, it makes one of Yoda think.

But it doesn't say anyhting that hasn't been said a thousand times before, and it offers nothing in the way of beautiful language or memorable structure.

As a prayer it seems a little vague as to what is actually wanted.

L3S4 should be caught as the rst of the poem is in the past tense, and in dire risk of repeating myself this morning I will suggest that the use of punctuation is normally considered beneficial when included within the written form of the English language, that is assuming you are trying to communicate with someone other than your own subconcious.

Foul play indeed, but let us not be chicken-hearted, I cluck that a little more punctuation might improve the flavour.

Said by who? Yes ofcourse she was determined, anybody who wasn't would have achieved absolutely nothing.

No, I don't actually think Gorillas think in such a manner, it is a rhetorical question aimed at the reader, who, except in Rockmage's case is unlikely to be a Gorilla

I do not think rockmage is limiting himself really, on the 12 of June he rated all the poems I had then posted, one recieved a three, the others were all zeros and ones. I think he is probably going through an insecurity problem so I shall not join the dance, it would not help I believe. Nevertheless, if I were the type who dished out zeros this might well be a candidate for one.

No bad, a little work, and the addition of a few small words could make it better.

I find the constant changing of tenses, from present to past and back again rather strange and I do not see how it helps the poem.

'Arranged in heaps', disarranged perhaps
There was only one bare foot?
Some punctuation would improve it, but it was a laugh.
