The count grew
Even as few went away
All of us cordially invited
I must have surely miscounted each
like illimitable strands of hay
We quietly wait, the order
of the magistrate- Speak
For finally the Judge returns to me
My fate

Hey!

I really like this-- its one of those poems where you dont understand every phrase, but you can link the overall message to something in your mind. Its very clever :)

Just one thing-- i noticed you managed to steer clear of cliches rather well...until the last line :S. I dont know- maybe it fits, but i hate cliches so i always pickk them out :) fate is an overused subject in writing, and i think using alternatives like "conscience" (random example- couldnt think of many :)) make a piece sound more genuine.

Really nice piece :)

I am not talking about the person you would die for. I am talking about to the person you would live for.
