They said poetry is for reading out loud. I read this one to myself and it sounded really great. They also said good poetry is a painting, and this is where I feel "Last Night" is a bit of a let down. The mental picture that I get is not as sharp it could it. Maybe the gurgling river, the howling wind, the trees, the nettles and the flowers all come to mean something terrible (nightmarish), but I can't put my finger to it.

Oh Bobchoi do we always see with our eyes? Technically you're probably right - I've talked about abstract ideas which amount to nothing of substance - I've not 'shown' you what I mean, no real descriptions - but it is a dream - do we see dreams vividly or do we feel them? Sometimes you know who a person is in your dream but you might not see their face - is it you're eyes that capture the images or other senses?
I appreciate your comments and the chance it gives me to really think about my own work.
