Dreams combined with determination and perseverance are a step closer with each passing day. A well written poem which flows smoothly and is clearly and thoughtfully expressed. Best wishes for your entry.

You know, I thought your poem was quite nice and then I seen it was an entry which ended up making your quite nice poem a lot cooler. You made your words align with the structure. Well done

This "rictameter" poem is reminiscent of the jail posters that were distributed in the hallways of prisons where I tried to teach criminals an alternative way through lives commenced in terrible circumstances. It may be that such a positive bit of sloganizing serves a real purpose of establishing goals for a life. However, the naive unreality of this poem's encouragements seem unlikely to inspire people who have met some part of real existence, an experience after which reaching for the stars seems preposterous.

    Insults reflect what the insulter is made of. Even in the friendly environs of the FS reviews, reality needs to be honored. Literature is an art, not a spigot.

    Those freed of Bedlam's stone walls make mayhem with the world; my kingdom for a horse.

    Yours has no writer. Mangle not words, those gems of our kind. Be well, Blind One.
