Comment from Dawn of Tomorrow
Kind of hard to keep that hope and dreams alive when the government steals from you and is trying to break the middle class, which they are doing a damn good job at I must say. Don't know exactly what it is like is Australia but here in the good ole USA they are aiming to get all sucking off the Government Titty. Well that's what I took away from your writing anyway, it may actually mean something totally different, LOL So good to read you againl, my friend. Love your rhythm, always have, you are uniquely Grant.

An interesting view. Thank you for sharing. I like the way the verses flow and repeat a bit. I'm not a poet, but know what I like.

Hello Bina1,
In my opinion, like wine, the best poetry is that which you like. Beyond that, you then are able to decide WHY you like or dislike something, But at the heart of it, you need to think and feel in many different ways to like many different styles and forms of poetry...
Sorry about the waffling on there..lol
cheers and thank you for your great comments!

Comment from cvcopac
I just skimmed the meter but I recognize both iambic and trochaic. It's mixed well with some good enjambment and offers an excellent rhythm. Fast paced, it reads like both a galloping horse and another day at the office.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
Yes, we in the 99 percent have to reset our standards (dreams) sometimes; as long as we don't stop having the dreams, we'll be all right. I must remind myself, too, that the one percent who have most of the money have their disappointments also; they're just different from mine. Very good poem
