    don't really know how this ties in with the contest but thanks for taking the time to enter it. puzzles. it is creative, but for me it leads me to confusion rather than a desert.

    Unusual Toxy...the grammatics I mean. I looked at your author page and you seem to write well enough, so the style is intentional...if not and they are simply typos, I apologize. I'm not much on detecting linguistics but it seems a bit gaelic...Irish maybe?

    Well the poems speaker seems convinced that he wants the other for more reasons than simply wanting what he cannot have...the question still remeans, "Is that true?" And I guess that is what the problem is...you we trust what someone says?

    Hey, the style works for me, it's creative.
