			<title>Keep Your Silence (Someplace Else)</title>
			<description>Revised version of an older poem. If you have trouble seeing part of the poem, I suggest just highlighting it. Part of the lighter text is a way of distinguishing the different parts of the poem.</description>

			<title>Surrender</title>
			<description>A poem about love. Romantic and familial. Found and lost. Some hate and loss; that comes with love. Handling the different subjects, and the idea of surrender. Really, really long. But worth reading.</description>

			<title>All-Tongue</title>
			<description>This poem is pretty much finished from what I can tell. It's really good in my opinion. Give it a read if you have the time. I put a lot of time into this myself. It may be my favourite work. Thanks!</description>

			<title>Songs and Psalms</title>
			<description>Eyes only understand darkness as a lacking of light. I find that interesting. Back on the topic though, this poem is likely finished. And I am greatly pleased. It is one of my best so far. Enjoy it.</description>

			<title>Cracks In Pavement</title>
			<description>This piece has some of my best poetry in it and as well as stuff that could be improved on, but I've been countlessly combing the poem, and it's more than ready to be considered finished. Probably.</description>

			<title>Book</title>
			<description>This came up and became quite brilliant. Unsure if finished, but what good work truly is? The best works are the ones that can be improved upon, reaching a higher ideal of perfection.</description>

			<title>Wanderers' Eden</title>
			<description>My favourite poem so far, I thought &quot;Climbing Centipede&quot; was a great poem, but this one is its equal, if not slightly better at times. The section labeled &quot;Time&quot; is optional here, but can be read.</description>

			<title>Climbing Centipede</title>
			<description>A collection of poems, or one big poem. Feel free to read some of them or all of them, but for the best experience, as they are all deeply related, I suggest reading them all, or at least, in order.</description>

			<title>Forest of The Unforgotten</title>
			<description>A mix of nostalgia and horror. Forgetfulness and memory. Love and death. Loneliness, and crowds. Hate and longing. I truly made a piece that showed all of this. What a strange pride I have for it.</description>

			<title>Spindle</title>
			<description>A collection of closely related poems. There are ten of different lengths. Some are quite long, some are relatively short. If you have the time, give them a read. It would be much appreciated. -R.J- </description>

			<title>Burning</title>
			<description>I've added 5 parts, and still don't know if the work is finished or not, however, I do know it is polished and ready to read. The second part &quot;Drive&quot; is a pseudo part, your choice to include or not.</description>

			<title>Fade To Black</title>
			<description>One of my favourite recent works. I have been tough on myself. I, myself, refused to see the beauty in things. Even if I wrote them, or experienced them. Myself was a subject I didn't want to hear.</description>

			<title>To Dream Grey</title>
			<description>Took a second look at this poem, at all my poems. I think it's fair to say I've come a long way. The need to be better has become a necessity. I am greedy. This dissatisfaction forced me to grow.</description>

			<title>Hikikomori</title>
			<description>Had a good time writing this. A poem in 11 parts. Different from some of my other longer poems. Maybe you'll like the style, it's not new, but this may be the first time you see me use it. Enjoy.</description>

			<title>Harbour Picture</title>
			<description>Two poems in a simpler style. An exercise for a more classic style, one that I don't often use, but can if I want to.</description>

			<title>Once More</title>
			<description>I wrote a poem called Once in the past. This is the same poem with minor changes. I felt could not overwrite this work. So there will be two separate versions now.</description>

			<title>New Word</title>
			<description>Something I've been working on for a while now. I may likely be adding more, I don't think I'm finished. Made a second part, third, and fourth. Happy with it. May still continue though.</description>

			<title>The Record Man</title>
			<description>Heavily edited this poem. I realized as I was doing so, I had deleted some lines along the way. So I remade them and did my best to make the poem as best I could. I hope you enjoy.</description>

			<title>Rider</title>
			<description>I'm trying to overcome some of my past poems, that I feel were quite excellent. I'm hoping I can make something even better. All I can do is try, so of course, I will do this with everything I have.</description>

			<title>Hurricane</title>
			<description>I was having some trouble getting back into writing. This isn't so bad, but I feel like I have a long way to go before I can write something better than The Crying Men.</description>

			<title>Chain</title>
			<description>Basically a chain of rhymes and assonance. Pure sound flowing into pure sound. Try to say it out loud if you want. Had a lot of fun with this! It was a challenge though.</description>

			<title>Memory</title>

			<title>A Swallow's Song</title>
			<description>Pseudo part 5 for &quot;The Crying Men&quot;. Found it more fitting to display on its own. </description>

			<title>The Crying Men (After T.S Eliot)</title>
			<description>I'm a fan of The Hollow Men. I'm also a fan of love. Though I never partake in it. Part 5 is called A Swallow's Song. It is separate. However, 1-4 and part 6-8 are here. And one extra. Enjoy.</description>

			<title>Lost Words They Used To Call Me (Eightball)</title>
			<description>Just something that came up when I had some time to think on the poem Pen Name. I think it's one of the most beautiful poems I've ever written. In a way, there are many, like this. Hope it continues.</description>

			<title>The Peak, The Fall</title>
			<description>The constant state of failure, flow, and success. And how we are prone to fail through success, and succeed through the learning of our failures. Suffering and happiness are the same problem.</description>

			<title>Pen Name</title>
			<description>Proud of this one. From this point on, I will share small bite-sized poems with my larger ones. That way I don't have to have a separate piece just for them. Find them at the bottom of larger poems.</description>
