Poetry Critical 2.0

Hey guys, Donald here.

In a few weeks, this site will be 9 years old. 9 years! And I still know some of the earliest submissions by heart.

But, boy. That’s like 102 in web-years. So it’s time for something new. I’m building that something now with my nights-and-weekend minutes (and plenty of coffee). Buy me a cup?

Random Poem:

The Angel Unseen
daemongante

This Angel has no wings,
 1
But an angel he is
 2
And he acts, Unseen.
 3
 
 
He gives us his kindness,
 4
And in his attempts
 5
He finds us and guides us.
 6
 
 
When he gives us his all,
 7
He tries and tries
 8
So not one more should fall.
 9
 
 
And for others to see,
 10
He shines a light
 11
So that they too may be,
 12
An Angel Unseen.
