Hi Matt... as a first attempt at poetry this is awesome - and somehow your choice of language- especially the word sounds themselves- seem to set the tone for the harrowing experience(s) that lies behind this poem (gathered together, words like "Rampaging" "uncaged" "gutter" "grasping"... seem to capture - in their use of harsh consonants- the associated traumas. ) And yet the poem comes to a sense of serenity and awakening... so the poem really moves through certain states, to a generous conclusion. Well done
