The two sections were actually two different drafts, but I couldn't decide between them. Fortunately, they work in tandem (at least I think so). Feel free to tell me if you like one better, or like both (or neither).
Also, I would really recommend the pantoum form to any poet, it forces one to look at words in a whole different way.
