Question: Is this poem too strange!? Or is it O!.K!.!?
Cracked open

Shell
cracked open
center oozing out
boiling hot,
needle sharp!.
Rage
it drips
and streams
enters my dreams
I feel my age!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is great!. The rhyme towards the end really works!. It doesn't seem strange to me, I recognize the feeling!. I think the full stop should come after "boiling hot" though, as "Needle sharp" seems more connected with rage than boiling hot!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

i don't think there is such a thing as a poem that is "too strange"
but
I do recognize that there are strange poems!. But this poem to me is not strange at all!.
