Welcome to Lit

With an interesting read;

Stay awhile

Let's see what else you've got.

This is a very interesting little poem, AG,

despite a few typos or errors:

--"coffee" is misspelled

--"Or" in line three probably shouldn't be capitalized, as you don't otherwise seem to be using a "cap first letter of each line" convention

--"and manage to swallow me down" I think should be "and you manage..."

--I don't happen to like the hyphens framing the two inset lines. You might want to consider something like using indentation and italics to set them apart from the rest of the narrative.

Overall, a nice quirky little statement with emotional impact. I liked it.

I echo what Tzara said below.

Despite the obvious typos and questionable punctuation, this is good stuff - especially for a first poem here.

And if your bio is accurate and you did not fib about your youth, then poetry and word usage of this depth is even more impressive . . . as is the fact that you used the word 'protean' in your mini-claim at chameleonhood.
