Author notes
This is written in sticky caps because I think that it doesn't matter how you write your poem... Just as long as the words are beautiful.... I can see how some people will probably find this poem extremely annoying... but I don't care. I take pride in what I write... Even if it is not very good.
**one more thing** Airyin is pronounced as AH-RYE-IN

Yeah I can understand what you are saying... I just did this to be different... sticky caps also give me a headache but I never see people writing poems like this... so I decided to try it out.

While a poem's presentation doesn't matter if the poem is good, it always helps if you're able to read it. I found this incredibly hard to read and had to stop several times because it was giving me a headache. I also think that some of your punctuation could be different. That said this is an interesting concept, thank you for your entry.

yeah most people hate sticky caps (i think they are just so annoying!) but i know some people like to use them, and i think that if a poem is good it doesnt matter how it looks! and if someone takes the time to do sticky caps then their poem deserves to be read!
and i relate to this poem too, when i'm writing i dont let no body look and i hide my stuff when they try to peek. thanks for entering
