THE ALL-UPPERCASE MUST (SURELY?) BE A MISTAKE? IF NOT, I WOULD STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU CHANGE TO THE MORE CONVENTIONAL UPPER AND LOWER CASE. ALTHOUGH POET GUY DISLIKES THE AFFECTATION OF ALL-LOWERCASE, EVEN THAT WOULD BE LESS IRRITATING TO THE READER.
Otherwise, the poem has a fairly nice 18th-19th century sound to it. Good effort.
I appreciate your critique...but the poem was written purposely in CAPS, for a very specific reason. To capture the readers attention and I felt the need to yell it to exercise my inner demons. If it was irritating to read I do apologize but CAPS made it all the more cathartic to write in that style.
After readin your poem, it is easy for me to understand your choice of all caps. It is a very effective way to call attention to your state of mind.
Thank you for grasping the intent of my use of capitals. I love the feedback for what I write and thank you for reading my submissions.. :-)
