The opening line is very good. It's almost as good as the opening line
of Robert Creeleys poem, "The Days Pile Up":

I do hope "Dr." NastyGoon credited Mr. Creeley; otherwise that would be
something they would call, you know -- "plagiarism".

The earlier poem by Eva Saulitis is very similar, if you were honest
you'd admit it:

Since you haven't read NancyGene's poem, your claims can be readily
dismissed.
I've read both NancyGene's and Eva Saulitis' poems, and find NancyGene's
to be superior.
Since you appear to be a fan of Eva Saulitis' poem, please be so kind as
to explain what it's supposed to mean.
