Hi Paul, yes I have found punctuation to be a tricky thing in Poetry, and I have been advised as to a few different directions in how to apply it. I am still not sure how to apply it properly or consistently. The Animal is capitalized as I envisioned this poem to be a kind of apocalyptic "last man" story, so the protagonist is really the last human animal, although I did my best to make this not too obvious.
