Thank you for sharing this. First of all, I thought the poem was absolutely wonderful. It felt eerily familiar to me as you used images that were both accessible and seemingly specific to you. The salt man swinging over that lake, what a gorgeous metaphor.

Have a badge. I really enjoyed reading this.

Also, this is absolutely the kind of thing we "do here." Welcome to the community, I hope to read more if your work. That was great.

Also, let me know if you have any questions about the site.

I'm glad you liked it. Thank you.

I'm not sure what a badge is. Does that just mean "good job"? Thanks, regardless!

Like I mentioned, I don't write often. It's something I need to do more though, and it might be easier if I'm not the only one reading it after.

Badges essentially mean good job, yes. Sometimes great job. Sometimes they mean hot fucking damn that was a good post.

Always hard to tell.
