I cannot begin to describe this, but... this poem made me cry. Beautiful rhythm, wonderful flow. My poetry group will revel in this piece as I shall print it out shortly and show them. You are amazing.

The first stanza of this was absolutely amazing, the rest, whilst not quite the same, was still brilliant. I also loved the stanza about "everything's moving a millisecond too fast" and the main chorus.

No, actually, I loved ALL of it.

Even though I don't know why I'm reviewing this, adding my name to the list a full two years after it was written although I don't know if you're going to even see this review...But either way, I loved it, I really did. And whether you see this or not, that's as much a legacy as anything.

The phrasing and words are fantastically odd. It seems to stop too soon, but maybe that's because I was waiting for a point when there really isn't one, which is why, as I reread it, I get this twisted little grin. I thought that "who're" should have been "who are," and that the line "tryng to decipher the truth from the lines" was a little cliche, but I couldn't think of anything else that would fit. You have the kind of work that has this vibe of finality, if you know what I mean. Like what you see is what you get and that's it.

it's one of those poems that after you read a few times, you still don't get...i give up. i like pigs. i wish they could fly.

maybe i'm missing the point.

or AM i?

You never cease to amaze me. I don't see how you do it! You always write something so incredibly weird and so symbolic. I like the stanza that you repeat and I especially like the line "persuading the pigs to fly." Wonderful title by the way. :) You seriously are my favorite author on this site. I do not flatter you, I speak the truth. I can't wait to read more. :)
