There are many folks who'd disagree with the way I feel about this poem. It's good but I really don't feel the text shortcuts used here should be used in a poem unless it's for a contest or a specific publication that showcases them. Ampersands et al are invasive enough in society that to pepper a form of already minimal writing with them seems excessive. As I said, there are thankfully, other people who don't share my views.
Interesting poem. I like it but not so much the last few lines. Maybe a slight change: the quarter-moon/is now her dildo. Your use of "4" and "&" is okay. I don't usually like them in poems but sometimes it works.
