But that's not an excuse, Doc!  You see,  mahejabeen's  second poem
doesn't  look  like a finished product to me.  It looks more like a
snapshot of a random page from her journal.   No doubt that the  imagery
is good. But they (the images) don't seem to fit togather.  Not yet,
atleast.  For instance, take a look at the second stanza of the second
poem.  It's so distracting. Why would one include it if one's really
interested in communicating a concrete idea?  What about the last stanza?

BTW, no more drinks for you this evening!
