don't be so despondent, try and do an edit, (i'll be editing one of mine today 
) if you don't feel up to it know, come back to it in a week or two. the great thing is that you're trying to achieve something. most of the my remarks while seeming large are actually smaller points than you think,.
for instance, if you fix a refrain you fix 5 or six lines
if you get two refrains that work well that's two thirds of the poem that are done well. constructive feedback can make a poet feel like shit, just stick with it because the pay off is worth it, i'm still waiting for my pay off but i really am expecting it to be worth it
