Nicely done with bold caps so you don't miss it

Thanks, Richard.  I actually appreciate that a lot because I wasn't sure if anyone would get it.  That's the only option I have on this site.  Others you can change the font.

Nice piece
Love and light

Thanks Ron!

Railroading him to climax!

There you go!  Thanks for reading!

It's got the right rhythm too with the syllable count. Excellent! 😊

Thanks.  The term you are looking for in poetry is "meter", but you are most observant.  Thanks for reading, Billy!

It's a bit of both, don't your think? What sort of meter is it?

I frequently write in Iambic meter which is the meter used for English Sonnets.  I'm just naturally inclined to do that.  This piece has a variable meter, but it works okay.  If you actually count the syllables in each line, they are not always exactly the same.  For the most part, this is pentameter (meaning 5 feet per line).  A 'foot' in poetry is equal to two syllables.  Sonnets are Iambic Pentameter... five feet per line with unstressed syllable followed by stressed syllable.  

Mr Shakespeare would be proud of you, lol! 😉

I wasn't really reading you poem.. just ogling that picture of your legs walking on the railroad... you had to go and put that up there ... I think I'm in Xanadu

I knew that ass was going to bring you in here, Sam.
