Dear all,

I've recently written a poem entitled 'Galatea' (see attached). I'll be delighted to receive your feedback.

your choice of words and structure is very impressive indeed..why no attempt at rhyming though?

Thank you! :)
  I wasn't sure whether rhyme would faithfully reflect the errant flow of thoughts of the schizophrenic protagonist in the poem, so I opted for free verse.

hey that was a brilliant one...seriously made me question my prowess in writing...though i think u have been heavily influenced by the poem 'Curtain' :)

Thank you! :)

Yes, I've indeed been heavily influenced by Spalding's 'Curtain' as well as Eliot's 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock' and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata - Movement One.

movement three is more kickass.

Absolutely! :D
