I had to read it a few times to get it. Kinda jumpy, however, I think it is a very cool take! For some reason, I found the mental picture very clear, nice job!

thank you. i'm glad you liked. i've been told it's too bitter, but i'm glad you like as is. i'm glad it created as clear a picture for you as it did.

Dear Liz
This is a interesting little poem. I am impressed by the arragement of words - so cleverly done.For me, you won.
Asif

The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they while their companions slept
Were toiling upward in the nigh

Perhaps it is because I am not familiar with your work, but could you explain to me the use of your punctuation?

thank you all. it honestly took me a million and 3 edits to get this one where it is, so i'm loving the responses. sunshine, i'm sorry it was confusing, a little clarity: semi-colons are my equivelent of quotation marks. i prefer them, in that they break me up less. sorry it was confusing.
again, thank you all!
