Hi Taryn.

didn't add meaning for me, like "Ceaseless Trespass" and "scathe the Axe."
I needed a motive so settled on human's encroachment on nature (ceaseless trespass) and 'scathe' (to harm, etc) was used by Milton in the sense of scar/scorch (apparently.)

- I believe "amerce" is a verb, but at least in my reading, it gets used in S7 as a noun. I hope I'm wrong, because I like cool, weird words.
You're not. I was just seeing if I could get away with it. Changed.

Hi Hilary.

I just have to ask - are you intentionally referencing Dylan Thomas with "owl-light"?
No, it's just an old word for evening that seemed to fit the mood I was after.

Hi Glenn

In S3L1, I can only get iambic tetrameter
Well spotted. Thanks. Changed.

RG.
