Just to prove that this account was not made for the sole purpose of watching other artists and faving their work, here's a little diddy of my own. This comes back from the ancient years of high school. A creation made from the sweat of my brow while being worked under the totalitarian regime of the North American educational system, but nevertheless I had a blast making it. The work is a form of poem so don't worry, if the lines begin to sound repetitive, it's the style of writing, not my creative juices coming to a standstill.

I'm somewhat always wary of older work, as it can be outdated in terms of what you can do now, but I really like this. Whilst it is a stylistic trait to repeat things (and epic poetry - which is what this reminds me of), I feel you might want to consider the extent, as I feel it closes down the opportunity for you to express some really wonderful imagery surrounding this idea. Anyway, I really like to see people here on FA writing in more literary styles, so by all means, keep experimenting in this vein!
I'm not to familiar with the Sestina form (though I probably should), but any sort of fixed form limits creative expression. I did a piece mocking poetry, once, and it almost did my head in - so I understand entirely! It was just a thought in case you felt like going back and revising this piece.
