ram horns crash, ____ ____
whet stones sharply grind ____ ____
Mars in retrograde.
get on it son!!!

what happens if you duct tape buttered toast, butter side up, of course, to a cat, and drop it off the top of a building?
do you create an anti-gravity field? didn't someone try this once?
the cat HAS to land on its feet. the toast HAS to land butter-side down.
maybe -=Dark_Angel=- can step in, and offer a ray of light, here? or at least some sort of conditional statement?

did you know that these regrow? they will look and feel different--maybe a different color or shape--they will have different sensitivities. but they will serve you well, as you will them. it's not over. step into the current. get washed away in the whitewater. it's the only way to fly.

hey, intransit.
some questions for you:
do inuits chant when fishing? does this scare the fish? because of these nagging thoughts, i have issues with the way you have changed the poem. you have taken something pritine and clear, and thrown sediment into it. the chant is too sentimental, i think. if spiritualistic contemplation is your aim, change "auger" back to "augur", and go from there.
your second chant changes him from automaton to thinker, which is not a bad shift, but, i think, shows too much intrusion of mind for a piece that focus on rote. it's a start of a shift, but not an entire shift.
okay, the thoughts came out full formed. trim them.

you need a colon or the word "were" after "Her symptoms"; i'd recommend the colon, and deleting "Yet," and "So," to tighten it.
ah, me. another mistake.
