Uniquenesses of talent here at soup, are like the many flowers in a garden, yours, mine, theirs, others, the many! I love the content of what someone is trying to convey, more than just form, altho form is important. Mine are more serious than most, I suppose. Thats just the command of my poet inside. Certainly a thought provoking, write you got here Jaret, I got lost in it for a time, thanks for sharing, Sincerely Moses

Jared, i am lost for words. Thank you ever so much for this wonderful write. I mentioned in one of my comments that i still had to read the remainder of your awesome poetry. This will be fulfilled this weekend in between any poems i manage to drag from the depths of the ink well. I hve just read all of Abe's - and your completion is next. Once again thank you ever, ever so much. A humbled Highlander called James
