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?

about you into the ceiling. For the hundredth time
 2
and once more before going to bed. Perspectives

of the dawn are nutritious. Despite the Sun is seldom
 4
upon the trees in the garden. Scrap of paper in my pocket
 5
seems to be a diamond. Just in case I wouldn’t come up
 6
with something more than love. In the cold morning shower.

As if a synonym.
