    Lovely. Entrancing title and worthy subject. I was a little surprised to see that this wasn't a fantasy poem, but you did a great job on it.
    I especially admired these lines,
    "I am wed to my bond, as marriage is recorded these bashful memories of another and same commitment, glorifying life as I live…. "
    Fantastic beginning pertaining to the following text and beautiful outline.
    Ialso loved the last few lines,
    "In exactly the same guise as I left it, or otherwise staggering though familiar, replete within my disorganization toward my potential, I smile…knowing I am and can be, anything I want to be. "
    You would think that the last line would seem cliche and overdone, but you tied it in well with the piece.
    Wonderful symbolism and metaphors, excellent job relating to our life today.
