Thank you for your feedback. It's funny you should mention the stuff going on in France, I wrote this poem a while ago but it seemed to fit with recent events so I decided to post it here.

Jacqueline,
the `personalisation` and insidious intentionality of the first part of this, leading to the `spell` and (intentional?) `woven` says more about the power of the printed word than much of the stuff going on in France at the present time.
Thoughtful.

I would echo Harry's words. Clever. If there was one thing I might think about, it would be the title. As it stands you understand what the poem is, in a sense from the beginning. Yet without the title, the words of the poem cleverly hide intention and meaning to the last.
It makes me wonder, is it possible to find a title that is appropriate, but keeps secret the words of the poem?
A thought - enjoyable regardless.
