    Brenton, I've never seen a poem like this before. Nice work.

  • Gosh I love your rhymings on this! So brilliant! Not bad and not bland!

    Yeah, bland would be much more welcome. And I hear ya on the bad knees one. Well done.

  • Is there a Bad Moon Rising? I like this a lot Brendan. You are a continual surprise of the best kind.
