There's a feel and emotion to the narrator that really brings the poems to life. Love the repetition in the closing line.Thanks addy
P.S. "Philosophy class is the cure for gayness" is a classic line.
My spur of the moment poems always do better than my more considered ones, and I'm not sure how I feel about that yet...Glad I gave you a laugh with the last lines of the first poem, and that you liked the repetition as well; I worried that that finale might seem contrived.

and really compliment each other. the first i found funny because
of the last 4 lines. the poem (two parter) speaks for itself and
does so without much ado, i found it to be a good solid read.
thanks for putting it up jack, (no pun intended) jmo
You're praise often tastes much sweeter than most, because I know how cutting you can be
Not sure I quite grasp your pun, though...
