Poetry inspired by a classmate, was definitely not a style I normally write poems in but it began with a single word written vertically in the margin of my notes while taking covert glances at him while the prof droned on and on. I probably should have been taking notes but it's quite difficult to concentrate when he sits anywhere within 10 feet of me.

Interesting how one can vote something negative, yet not be willing to voice why they didn't like it...

Feedback is always welcomed..

It is listed under "First Time." I expected a story about a couple's first time. It looks as if what we got is a first time writer wondering why no one likes their writing?

You might want to know a person before you make assumptions. I've you look at the writers bio it's not the first time I've written. I happen to be a published poet for over 15 years.

As for the tag "First time" It is the first time, since the point of the poem is a woman's fantasy of a man she barely knows.

Thus the notes at the end combined with the actual poem itself.

Dan-o, no follow through yet, but the semesters just begun.

They are, and it's rare that I ever attempt them but that day in class this one practically wrote it self. I'm glad it did though as I like how it flows and captures the images that I'd been thinking about at the time.

I loved it. I have written a lot of poetry but nothing quite like this. Most impressive.
