Jackie,
I hope you win the contest and either way I am glad you submitted it.
The poem was powerful and evocative for me,and it said things that needed to
be said about the lack of awareness or care for cause and effect and for
what is happening around us. And I loved the 'and we're busy killing frogs.
line. It really punches the point home and gets the attention, the contrast
vivid and easy to grasp/understand. And I love the cadence on the mind and
ear of rhyming poetry and never understood what made it go out of fashion.
That and other 'poetry changes' inspired my first non-rhyming sort of Gothic
poem that I will share with the list as soon as I find it.
