this one's a keeper
belongs in an anthology
send it to a journal
nice work
keep em coming
i like the ending
i like the beginning
a memorable line
solid effort
if i had just one poem to read
this would be the one
the feel-good poem of the summer
reminds me of death in venice
reminds me of chuck bukowski
reminds me of my lost youth
it reminds me of something
something good
something real good
this is the best poem i have ever read
you, my good man, are a genius
you, my good woman, are a genius
you, my dear reader, are a genius
i really like this one
