Thanks for the positive feedback

I'm going to play with the verse order and layout. If I decide to change it I'll post here:P

Bri: yeah, there are the odd ones, but mostly they tend to be themed. I don't do poetry to order hehe, I'm not that disciplined, I have to write as and when it strikes and the subject matter tends to be quite random. I did consider going to the poetry open-mike nights over at the Stubbing Wharf. Some of the stuff I do is really meant to be read aloud (like the Manchester Dreaming one and Asylum) other stuff I think works better with the reader's own voice.

I've only ever done one proper poetry reading. It was hellishly nerve wracking and I doubt I did the poem justice lol.
