i just read this poem again, and then read what i reviewed for it and was shocked. am very sorry, i musta been either very angry or very depressed, cos this poem RAWKS! please ignore that review. this poem is just simply beautiful. it flows so well and that last stanza thingie is so powerful it just hits you in the face. really really well written, bloody brilliant. well done

wow.. thats amazingly powerful.. i like it alot!
Its so beautiful!

although this is really well written, and with lots of meaning, i do find hidden metaphor a lot more effective. damnit! dont mean to be flaming you, just saying. dont hate me... please...?

Which war is this? I'm guessing it is the war on Iraq. I wish this war would end.

Nice. It's good to see that you're still as talented as always. I should check on you more often!
