Richard, At last somebody who can write Pathos in Poetry that rhymes, scans and uses repetition to hammer home a point..
Much more memorable in consequence.

Yes I've been there more than once. You see it in one of mine "I dont want to see you anymore"

Good write. I'll do the rest of yours today (Now the site is back to normal)
