And ya I'd go for the Early Works title ... because if writing such as Heslopian just posted is considered shitty then I will never attempt to write.
I really enjoyed Sweet Alice, it's full of heart and emotion and easily related to.

Thank you, Kath, you're very sweet. I still think Sweet Alice is objectively shit, but that it touched you means a lot to me. And don't worry about not understanding some of the greats; your opinions are just as valid as the academics, the people paid to critique poetry. That's how I feel, anyway. I don't think anyone here would claim to be an intellectual - I know I certainly wouldn't! - so going for what strikes the heart seems like an appropriate course.
