5 and 7 were excellent on their own.

The rest was interesting but didn't provoke any emotion, for me anyway.

clever and pleasing to the ear and eye. Good work. Mentioned in today's new poem reviews.

Now this is more like it.

I read you, I know I am reading poetry that will be around, and discussed ina hundred years. Congrats, G.

You are my poetry idol...one of them, anyway, and there are only 5 so far. does that matter to you? I hope not.

keep up the intriguing work...

than an original poem that uses Stevens's technique of numbering separate poems that together paint a picture of different views of the whole. Still, it's clever and funny, and a few of the strophes (cacophony/euphony one and the Plath one) are excellent and could stand very successfully on their own as uh poemlets. :-)

a take on the thirteen, but nicely humorous and irreverant.

nicely done.
