To be sure, it is quite bad. If a poem is confusing, that is fine. If a poem is a lot of words without purpose, thought or meaning,..I can tell. The second stanza holds a horrible (and unintentional) breach in reason and logic, you see it? So does the second, though the phrase "thick thickets" so offensive to the silly wee man above is perfectly tolerable. The rest is simply a bore, not disgusting, not interesting. I don't like it. The first stanza evokes eating imagery. It is continued in the second two, in the third stanza the repetition of thick thickets is tautological, to be avoided. the final call to the dim path and the artificiality of hearts glowing up shows nature's losing power and artificiality overtaking. The overall impression is not very heartening. |
