there are other forms of crying/release... cutting, puking, drinking, smoking... i've touched base with all of these,(shamefully admitted) and now crying has lost its essence, its potency...

love this piece, esp. the 'tourist attraction' part, i really like you're diverse, yet formidable, ability to describe things and paint pictures with such a different style.

Wow. I liked all of the discriptions you used. They brougth very good imagery and I could see everything. I can relate to this. Great job!

The descriptions in the poem were powerful, of which I thought the beginning was strongest because it conveyed the narrator's expectations well. There was a lot of restriction within the piece and some of the things you compared your inability to, like desserts gave out a sense of isolation.
