Thanks for seeing that even tho the poem was addressed to those who abuse, it also shows what true boylove is -- being concerned and caring for the boy. Your poem is also a good example of showing us how we should be careful of the type of "love" that we are showing these boys -- is it the kind of love that truly helps the boy, or is it selfish love (for ourselves) that is revealed in the end by its rotten fruit. Thanks again. Splash |
