I liked this poem quite a bit for its overall effect, but it had a few things that bothered me. I wanted blood to do something other than thrum. I wanted the night to be something other than soft velvet. I wanted to see "galloping alongside" instead of "gallomping along side," and I wanted to see "its circus colors" instead of "it's circus colors." But I liked the unity, clarity, progression and imagination; and the last three lines were wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
