Ohhh, that's good. The predictable course would have been to have the poem rewrite itself into a masterpiece. Instead, you take it in an unexpected direction where it writes itself into an unrecognizable form. What poet hasn't experienced that?!
Should it be "stumps that were left"? My only nitpick. Loved it otherwise.
Your poem has been recommended in the New Poems thread on Literotica's Poetry Feedback and Discussion forum.
Wow, this poem is like a highwire act in the way it makes my heart race with excitement.
if you took those stilt legs and added a bit more rhyme, you would be Yeats. But it stands head and shoulders above...maybe because of the stilts
