I had trouble reading this long piece without any punctuation. Was there a reason you did that? Some point you are making? Because I don't think you're getting through. I'll bet that a lot of people click on it, take one look, and leave,because that big block of writing is, frankly, somewhat intimidating.

That's too bad, too, because I put the punctuation in (mentally), and if you put the proper punctuation in, this would be a powerful piece.

my suggestion-comment below is the same as i wrote for your 'LIVING AREA' poem.

it's not an easy read without punctuation.
can i be bold & suggest that - if you choose not to use punctuation then write each separate phrase/or sentence on a new line.
it may make the story/poem long but the whole writing will have more impact & be an easier read.
