Sweeping. So well written it swept through with subtle detail (that's an oxymoron, aint it?!) and an overall atmosphere that leaves on...swept? Sorry, that's stuck in me mind now.

And the way you ended it was so well done. So well executed.

A letter of his love, it wasn't much to engage,
But his loverboy blood never dripped on the page.

The last 4-6 lines were very good. Well constructed and layed down. But that last line really rounded it off well. Left an feeling of longing...melancholy..anger...sorrow. Bitter sorrow (or maybe bitter-sweet sorrow). Especially that 'loverboy blood', which for me was the key thing in that last line. It sounded so bitter, sarcastic....yet without completely covering the sincerity. It's plain meaning. Hmmmm..

Whether or not a highly talented 'out and out poet'. You're very much highly talented WRITER. Have you ever thought of writing short stories in poetic form? Like 5-6 pages or even longer? I can see them being epic with you in the write mood and flow. Cos you know how to 'sweep' through with whatever you write.
