This is such an incredible poem. The imagery is so strong and it carries such a powerful message

This is so excellent. It took me until about the fourth stanza to realize what you meant by "foreign feet". I like the...the...image, the painting you come out with. And you keep it clear without actually mentioning who the "foreign feet" are until the end. That's pretty cool. The only thing I don't like in this is "For their own homes they fear". The rhythym sort of breaks there. Oh and yeah, I like the rhythym of your poem. :)

Ooh.
I like.
I gotta say, Matt, the reason I like your poetry so much is that it's topical and not the cliché romance stuff that makes up roughly 99.9% of the boards here (guilty of it myself).
Well done again.
