Ah, this was wonderful. I love it when poetry has a physical form. People don't do that very often, it's kind of refreshing. And the message, of course, is also very powerful. It's true, regardless of color or any kind of association, everyone is really just "hunting" each other in some form. Again, nicely done.

Only way I can fit the title is you wrote it on a napkin and I don't know how I read it right the first time
Strue enough though.

cynical, but most likely TRUE....I gave up hunting long ago

Perfect, the contradictions work awesomely. What I would say about this poetry is that it's living. I hope that's a high compliment rather than blowing smoke. I think it's excellent and if I was writing this (what you're going for) I'd have known where to stop ~ that being exactly the way that you did it. Placements are everything, again- this is perfect.

I like the way that you have played with for here...it is a unique portrayal of the metaphor behind the work, which speaks more loudly, I think in this format.

Secondly, I love the exploration of color--no black or white, only grey; the blend of complete opposites. Perhaps there is also no 'wrong or right' in life either, but something that resides in the middle in some way.

Thought provoking...

I like the way the format alone already tells a story. Also, I find this poem pretty vague with so many different interpretations to come up with. You've played with words and space effectively and beautifully.

Keep Writing. ^___^

This reminds me so much of an e.e. cummings poem! And I like how the last two lines set the mood of the piece. The words are very elegantly placed.

I love this. This can be interpreted in so many different ways (My personal interpretation that nothing in life is straight forward and you have to struggle through the large negative of confusion of life to stay alive) . I love the imagery you use as well. Awesome write
