Hey Tom,
Thank you for the critique and the time you spent with the poem. I see one minor issue I'll correct immediately (the feral line, I need to pull some words up). I'll do that without a revision. I need to think more about your opening comments (I realize we're on opposite sides of the enjambment wars, but I do believe you make some good points, and I'd like to think about them more). There are few other points you made that I'll also consider.
Forgive the ramble, I'm mostly just processing the critique in real time.
Best,
Todd
