I love that poem by Robert Frost; in fact, I love his work, period. I think me just may be my favorite poet. So I guess I can say that your choice of inspiration for your poem was a great one!
I must confess that my writing, when it becomes explicitly rhetorical, is highly influenced by Friedrich Nietzsche's style and thought. As long as we're actually saying something worthwhile (as I think you did with your own creation), why not wear our influences on our sleeves, hey? Take care.
Don't be so hard on yourself! I think the poem is beautiful! Isn't it crazy to read awesome poems from people, and you're like, how do they do it??! I attempted poetry once, but...uh...it didn't turn out so great. I think Frost would've murdered me in my sleep if I had continued. -___-
I read your last post, and I hope you're feeling better now! Just take it easy and get lots of rest!
