David, don't ask me why, but all the time I was reading this I kept remember that song I Got That Rhythm In My Soul. You have got the rhythm in this piece. It drives you along like an express train out of control. L J said stream of consciousness is right. I imagine your fingers flickering over the keys trying to keep up with the thoughts pouring from your mind hoping to get everything down before the flow stopped. Cleverly written as usual and a thoroughly enjoyable read. David

Yes, the rapid rhythm is like running downhill with no control and going nowhere but getting there fast. This is a poem for the sake of the rhythm and the rhyme and the message is in the rapidity of the form. Stream of consciousness in a Tsunami moment that rushes over and through the content for it is the form here that is more important-like the words of Poe's Bells wherein the ringing tone is more important than the words themselves.
