First time I've seen Kumarmani use the word wow. That makes it more impressive. Daniel Brick used it with a qualifier that made it even more impressive. My point being that when such great poets are using this word, you are writing at fullest potential. Which is what you've been doing all along! M.J., I can totally relate to this poem. Especially when I was a lot younger. Masterful piece worthy of Wow+++++++++!

To plead! Begging for mercy. With the muse of the things around you today. Nice work.
