The girl that thought she was nothing,
Died for nothing,
Alone.

These lines from "Amy" are so brutally true.
Amazing work.

"September Sisters" is an extraordinary, piercing work and deserves to be widely read. " But fire angels cannot reach their goals" is a line touched by genius.

Hello Simon - If you never wrote anything else,
your poem "September Sisters" should ensure that
you would be respected and remembered. Your
use of the Shakespearean style for this subject is inspired. The drawback is, of course, how do
you top it?!

Hi Simon - welcome to WOL. I see you've put some poems on the blog section - great! I like the poem here on your profile page - reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe.
