6000 feet up plus two
of my own
in the stars' backyard
surrounded by God's toys
catholic lutheran methodist pentecostal...
and grass lawns which grow
cigarette butts
will I join
the midget trees
in the midget town?

Mystical!

I enjoyed enjoyed the literary journey of your words. A restless and beautiful poem.

Thought Provoking

First poem I've read of yours that actually

held my attention.

I think it would have better impact with

punctuation. I know the reasons you

chose for ignoring it purposely.

That said, I think this particular poem

would work better with it.

The reason I say that is specifically

pauses. Some lines when read across

feel like they are meant to be read

smooth and quick. In this poem

I believe commas, in the right places.

would improve the poem from the

readers seat.

I did really appreciate the cigarette

butt reference.

Surprise, surprise!

best,

andy
