    You are pretty much dead on, there are two ways to look at this poem...

    One from a deep level, as you saw it where i'm hating on myself and the two sides of myself are talking to me, one saying how he's loved (The fans) and the other, saying i am the bastard.

    The other way to look at is consider the murder part, and the mirror...maybe he saw this 'bastard' behind him in the mirror...about to be murdered himself.

    Any pointers in improvement on grammar and structure, Chris? I'd love to revise any of my works and improve upon them given the right advice (and am going to work on my birdy one now :P)

    i always thought that poems were deeper without rhyming
    i've spent a long time trying to show the emotions in a way that flows with a rhyming structure, as well as making people want to read the poem over again
    i've read and reread your poem 10 times. each time i notice something which makes me love it even more
    its hidden meanings, its more obvious points.

    it's great. excellent. i wish i'd written it.
