    A good longer read. I was taken in by the way once again by your imagery. I also liked the way this poem was in a more of telling a story then just describing something we feel or do, though it was doing that also. I also had to read the poem several times before I got the message of the poem and each time I read it I got a different message of what was happening and how you described everything.

    "a weak result from one star
    sending her colors to rest
    where admiralty was deserted,
    on an island of myriad shame
    that injected a depressant
    to film her petty desires."

    This was my favorite stanza that I really enjoyed as I feel like I could almost relate to it(metaphorically) and also the descriptions and way you make the stanzas compelling is great too. A wonderful poem from start to finish. Great job and keep writing.
