Vagabond....I doubt whether your comments would offend but interpretation is for you and the birds. Critique is what the forum requires...give it a try, you will learn as much from critiique as the writer.

WHAT? This is misc. If Vagabond wants to interpret that's great! (And especially welcomed by me.)
You owe Vagabond an apology.
Read the misc. guidelines.

once i have a glimpse of meaning/ message i can start to search for ideas how to transport said message better (if i can think of improvements).
without some discussion concerning the interpretation all i could say about this poem is: the meaning is not sufficiently clear but it transports feelings of denial and helplessness.
I apologize for the red ink. I want you to know I had nothing to do with it. You're free (and encouraged) to make ANY comments
you desire under any of my poems (with the exception of the few basic PigPen no-no's such as named personal threats and kid porno etc.).
A viewer's interpretation IS the art... of course, the artist is a viewer as well so maybe some co-interpretation would be fun.

I intend to respond fairly soon. (Though my intentions frequently end up as heat-resistant paving.)
