This is an absolute masterpiece. The wordplay as well as the layout of the recurring theme is spot-on. This has allowed me to appreciate your feedback on my own work all the more. Thank you so much, and keep up the amazing work.

Shahzia Batool(1/9/2014 3: 59: 00 PM) what can we call this poem...a poetic narrative or an allegorical fable with a meaningful depth related to man's life... Plenty is not happiness; forgiveness is its meaning...right observation of the protagonist with this end: I'll forgive the selfish world; I'll forgive all greedy men. But I'll not pat their backside or walk into their den.' very deep poem!
