a typo in line 3 -'too' the repetition of 'hides' is a bit heavyhanded

aren't most waves formed relatively near the shore? but I'm no oceanographer. *8

I appreciate all the criticism and agree with most of it, from your point of view...I should have put a disclaimer that this would be best appreciated by a toronto audience.

Toronto has a horrendous homelessness problem, and I wrote this thinking of my otherwise wonderful city. Perhaps this sounds like an excuse, but what the statue looks like doesn't need to be explained to a Torontonian, because we walk by 100 homeless people everytime we go downtown.

the last three lines are supposed to highlight the discrepancy between what we know is right and what we do.

'concupiscent'?

ack,

Latinate words are never evocative, stultifying instead. throws water on your fire . same for installing, concerning, intention etc

I had to google that one. I don't have time to watch TV (I used, but not these days). Wherever Meredith is I wish her the best.

wasn't this poem the inspiration for 15 seconds of a 1970s sitcom?

you are an evil piece of s*** who obviously knows it too. go ahead, spread your poison because you think you're anonymous.
it's actually a decent poem - but you being a hateful asshole makes me feel sorry for you. so i'll give you the nothing you are and want.
yes, rockmage is winning. glad you're above it all -9-
