He doesn’t write poetry anymore.

I feel like I’m at my best when I’m writing about Doc. I don’t know if it’s that I try harder because I feel like I need to do him justice, or it’s because I know I’ll end up giving him the results, but either way I’m almost always happy with the poems where he is the subject.

I like the idea behind this one a lot, though I do think it could have been executed a little better – maybe a little expansion in the third stanza to explain the poetry contained in his prose. I really would like to read some of his poems for a real compare and contrast, but he hasn’t given me any yet.

Anyway, I think the reading turned out well – I like the change in tone as I begin the third stanza 🙂
