N. Matheson,

Wow.

For some reason threads such as this tend to go on much longer and generate more interests than threads about actual poems.

Wringing one's hands about Shakespeare means one does not have to use those same hands to revise one's poems, right?

If you love the old English so much, then why not revise your poems to at least correct syntactic errors? I myself do not know if you recognise the mistakes people have pointed out, because you have not responded. For all I know about archaic syntax, you might be actually be right.

Some folk do not even think the English language is all that compared to what other languages can evoke of emotion and cognition. Some folk do not even think English sounds all that nice. Some folk do not even think Shakespeare is all that.

Wow.
