""great story"" -- john smith.
"great story" -- pochahontas.
"You're lucky, not many people have early American figures review his/her work. Anyhow, this is a very poetic piece, especially the opening, which really captures the story. It's poetic without being pompous, which is an error with most poets of the modern age. A few corrections: "long term" should be hyphenated. You "lay" something down, you "lie" yourself down. Hemorages should be hemorrhages." -- JA St.George.
