would you mind terribly if I added this to my Jack the Ripper group?

I really liked this piece. It was very deep and engrossing, and even if I couldn't find the meaning it a part of it, I couldn't stop reading. Nice writing, too. Good way to hook the reader. Very nice job! ^_^

I especially liked the ending:

If rock bottom is a place

Wouldn’t there be something under,

Even if it’s nothing?

For even nothing needs a name.

Impressed, impressed I am.
"If I could be buried under so much sleet,
Sleep,
Would I still be human? Still"
I think a lot of people often wonder this, and have a lot of fear. If something kills you in your sleep, would you remember yourself as a human? Would you be human. I especially am impressed with the use of Jack the Ripper, since he ties in there somewhere along the line. Good work.

This is so deja vu... I just watched a documentary on Jack the Ripper today...freaky. squee! I love your weird descriptions that lead to sensations. Hehe, little man, greenland... I was laughing. I especially liked the ending. It reminded me of a passage in "Beloved" where Sethe was talking about Sweet Home, but then she wondered if because that place was so beautiful, was Hell a pretty place? I dunno. weird. I go on to the next author alert message in my inbox now. Hopefully, there will be a Loki update... -Kez

interesting ramblings.
though i couldn't find the collective meaning for it, i did seem to find some meaning within each break.
i must say that i don't think the title does the contents justice. though there is mention of jack the ripper, a piece with such a title could easily have ended up (as i assumed it might) a work of mindless drivel with some "horror" undertones. but this is much more.
i think the last section might be my favorite, esp. the line: 'For even nothing needs a name.'
well, i like the whole thing.
