Dear V. Snipwell,

Your poem was received, but not well. Your metre is all over the place. One couplet alone failed to align properly, and your rhyme scheme is tentatively passable at best.

An amateur effort. You are welcome to try again, should you have no fear of further failure. You might even improve your craft.

To Kinilan,

I beg your pardon. It seems there's at least one person who mistakes you for someone of worth after all. Though I should not be surprised if this is simply you under a nom de plume, seeking to save face.

That is how shallow an effort this poem was.

Tired by the tiresome,
Taelle Starling
