Subject: RE: BS: wrote this for a friend
Were it me (and I can't even write BAD poetry), I think I'd leave out the second verse entirely, or find an alternative to "When the bombs blew the hotel down". That line evokes a different, and more violent, image than the rest of it does.

Please understand that I only commented because you asked. The entire thing is excellent.
