Oops. I don't mean that to sound like your poems aren't good, just that this one is great.

Fabulous. This poem should be best on poemranker. It's your best, certainly. Eminently publishable, Dental.

Let me ask you, when exactly IS the last time you saw God outdoors?

The missed out repetition. It was really, um, drunk sounding that way. And I can't remember what exactly you had after "and the girl" in the first stanza, but I think it was more lyrical.

So's the crab, for that. And they're both from Eliot. But I bet you knew that.

This got better. First stanza needs a rewrite.

Of all the things just for rhyme in this one, "if not to read one more?" is the most worrisome.

One of the biggest differences between us is when you say something smart, I like and respect you. Whatever I say on poemranker, you'll still think of me as the boy who pantsed you in third-grade gym. What incentive do I have to act pleasant with you, then? If you don't mind my saying so, I think you need to take a big Dovina step back from all that pent-up emotion. It doesn't seem healthy.

Are you bent up about the logic so-called debate ending? Christ, I thought we all were relieved when that abortion dropped off 20 Most Recent.
I call you a blathering moron when you blather. When you don't, I argue with you. Arguing with a blatherer only brings shame on the arguer. The blatherer thinks he's ace.

I liked the original better.
The poor tulip boy has poor taste
that he loves his patch
and his trowel and spade
and his landlord, the dame
that he sells to in the market
his red and yellow flames.
I am a poor tulip boy
with not a purse nor a name,
made to grow tulips in clay
and sleep in my shoes
on a poor tulip boy wage,
happy to sell none today.
You're welcome. Nice.
