Ahmed, thanks for making me aware of your poem. I found it amusing and interesting. The concept is a fresh one, and, unlike so many poems, this ends well. Fifth line might do with a verb. Line fourteen 'against both' unnecessary. How about: 'they made an agreement/to have a battle between them'? Think you need to tinker a little with elements of how fog and man exchange names but should not be too difficult to set right. Really like the poem's lightness of tone. This is an 'airy' concept and a weightier treatment would have killed it. Hope these suggestions and comments are of some use to you. Best from B.E.P.

when a loud sound of suddenly_stopped car.. engine, , .. awakened me, to find nothing.. but my warm place, shining screen, in front, and your poem, bizarre fun.
