As a left hander, I don't like slanted versre
and as a reader of--I like shraight-up words (standing upright, so I can read them, and let the words stand for themselves). But after struggling thru your choise of "pennmanship" (and I'm thinking what you trying to hide?)...which I didn't get to evaluate til your last 2 lines, which I especially like: god as victim, which seems to open up the snow cone...humnn, wonderful, dramatic turnaround... now if I could just read the fulfilment in the middle. I just figure I like standup print, because I think I'm intelligent to fine my own meanings.
To put it another way, I don't think poetry is so much about personality as it is vioce, which I like to perceive as barely written.
OK> Now I feel a lot better.
