I don't really know if I'm trying to say anything, per se. In that I mean - there's nothing that I'm getting to, necessarily. It holds a lot of subjective meaning and from that has spurred the imagery and metaphor, though from the responses I've garnered it's clear that the layered metaphors are making it kind of murky to decipher anything from an impartial viewpoint. The gist of it is, "I bloom by night." But I decided against putting some variation of those exact words in there.
Could you elaborate on my lack of "the" and the detriment caused? Where should the the's be?
