You Are Not An Ant Poem by Abdul Wahab

i liked the look of the big notches in your poem. were ants chewing on it last night? :) Did you bring here yourself by your own self? i would write....bring yourself here..... look down to relief your mental distress and see high how....i would write look down to relieve.... there are other parts which don't seem quite 'right' to me, but time is short AND some poets don't appreciate my 'critical input', so i'll stop at the above. Who has sent you why and for what? .......a good question to give a poet something to write about, BUT who knows the answers? not me (not i) . you are human being, says the philosopher, where hills oceans suns and moons fail there succeed a man, ............i find that very interesting. but i don't agree. [though i confess that i don't really know what is meant by fail and succeed in these lines] i believe 'ants' have existed as an animal form for much longer than humans, even though an individual human usually lives much longer than an individual ant. also i believe the moons, suns, oceans, and hills have preceded mankind for the most part. maybe not all hills. thanks for sharing. :) (this was the second time today i misspelled preceded and had to be corrected by the computer!)
