The Walk

[milo]

well hell, i'll throw two more cents into the bucket since i have nothing else to add critique-wise:

for me, the confession aspect is cleared up in the very beginning with the dedication - il miglior fabbro

if you know the history behind it (Eliot to Pound, The Waste Land, etc.) then the rest of the story falls in place, imho

i didn't see this as a romantic confession at all, but rather one of appreciation, a camaraderie in craft, if you will

just my take on it. prolly readin too much into it, but that's how i connected with it.

it's a beautiful poem, btw.

That was my take as well.
