This is my first critique on here and I'm hoping to not repeat prior comments.

If you were to drop publet/nublet and repalced with pigs, I think it would help alot. Or if you won't, then either explain beforehand or find a way to explain in the poem. I'm really curious about this story or inspiration for this poem.
and all the nublets
that happen to be reading,
seeding or feeding the
hungry of the mind. So I'm thinking this is for a fantasy book or that you haven't clarified what these words mean. In my mind, from reading this first stanza, I'm thinking publets is baby pigs (so why not say piglets) and nublets are adult pigs?? Since that's not right, I'm assuming some fantasy creature or something. If that's the case, I love this stanza except for its last line, feeding the hungry of the mind, I need more explanation.
nublets please, listen close
for though i tend to hear the most
random things in an afternoon.
it doesn't mean one still can not
play near the moon. I think this is a good stanza that could be made stronger if there were more explanation to the last line
piglets come here and close. Wait, so they ARE piglets? What was the nublet, publet business about?
you may die tomorrow, but
to your end, we shall brost.
with beer and your body of coarse.
at least some can die, I really appreciate this stanza though, it's dark yet fun lol. However I almost wonder if making this line "at least" more of an afterthought or held thought would make it stronger? What I mean is maybe a "... at least" or an exclamation point at the end of "remourse" or even still "at least". It may add more feeling that way
without the thoughts of remorse.
remorse, feel me now. for again, exclamation point?
thou art everything that you are now. i'm not entirely sure "thou" fits here but at the same time I like it here
i can feel you or i can die
like a pig. or the moon can be
like guiding light till the end. I'm not sure about this ending... I feels a little disconnected from the "or" Maybe it needs a little more connection.
