Leering,
Jeering,
Fearing,
Nearing,
Masses facing leering, jeering souls
Falling; missing, fearing nearing goals

interesting.... i've not heard of this.

my only suggestion to you... not really about this poem, hope you don't mind..
would be, that you don't get so caught up in format and style that you lose your own voice.
structured poetry is wonderful, i'm a big fan of it.. but sometimes, i only use it as a guide... not strictly following "the rules"
but that's me. :-)

i do like what you've written, i hope you understand that.

Snow, I always appreciate your comments...for me, I'm just experimenting...if I don't, I probably wouldn't write...you see, I do not have the 'tortured' soul of a poet.  My life is perfect, I am at ease with myself.  I have no dark clouds on my horizon, I fully count myself blessed.  Almost everything that I write, I manufacture from empathy...not experience--in that, I never feel quite comfortable in the presence of 'true'poets.  I often feel like a visitor in a foreign country here...enjoying the experience but not quite understanding everything I see and hear.

Michelle, exactamundo!
