Who was Walt Whitman before Walt Whitman was Walt Whitman?

The names you use are examples. They're just lines. There is nothing wrong with the idea, that there's nothing special in the poem is the problem. It could pass as a poem, but passing doesn't get you anywhere. It's all good, but you have to push further to get further. If you expect more than passing decent of yourself. I wrote and tried to post a more detailed message, but. Well, I don't see it. Must have not went through.

The point comes through, but so does roses are red and violets are blue. Sure, lots of people will get a poem like this, and if that's what you want you've got it. But to impress the poetry junkies you have to go further.
