    Intense poem there, Janey. The entirety put the first stanza into perspective, I think.

    When I read it, whether or not it's how you mean it, it seems to match my life, lately. Looking for significance, pattern, purpose in the face of empty randomness... being pulled by the current, and not even knowing if you should try to fight it. Mm... yesh. Anyway, I hope you are doing better than your poetry seems to relate. Peace and love.

    Gorgeously erudite. I love your poem. The words fit together as perfect as an arrow in a bow.
    Um, and the point of a profile is so egocentric people can share all the facets of their fascinating lives. So yeah, most people do write in it.

    Overuse of the word I but an interesting read. The word choice was clever although in some places the rhyming seemed forced. A though provoking piece.
