very nicely painted scene and nice use of repetition. it's so ironic how mankind isolates himself because of his suspicions/perceptions of others. bravo the ravyn!

Wow... I could give a bunch of reasons to back that up, but bottom line: Wow.

i get the feeling of sustained innocence in a cruel world from this poem... and some memories of the loneliness/self-preservation stress of traveling solo...
