Abuse of the humble apostrophe (or in this case, underuse) reaches new heights.

So true, but sadly the force of your message was entirely undermined by a six syllable second line.

I am, however, unlikely to pen further poems about DA's infection with the gay.

This is truly the most agonisingly tacky thing I have ever had the misfortune to read. I have the greatest respect for your feelings, but this is absolute drivel. I refer you to:

I wish I could think of a better word, implying more sicklyness than 'saccharine'. But I can't.

Commas
Perhaps too many
Perhaps poorly applied.

But so preferable
To excessive use
Of line breaks
For the same purpose.

A work of breathtaking vision

Does this mean, oh joy of joys, that you are leaving? I also see that you have deleted "comments on this site part 2", which I take it means you are refusing my challenge to name 10 great minds who have achieved great things at or before the age of 16.

By the way the scintillating rythms of this poem have scored white hot lines across my soul. -10-
