Key West Poem

This is in response to the poem in which we read about Key West.  I loved this poem in many ways.  It had a haunting way of describing the scenery and magic that goes on within the place and of its people.  You could really tell that the poet was touched, deeply, by the location and the power that it held and still holds.  I feel as though locations in this world are something we as humans love to brag on.  Everyones hometown is always better than someone elses hometown, or home state, and so on.  Places can shape and mold us.  Put a "mark" on some of us, they say.  Sometimes the places within the world, can be larger than the world itself.  At least to the individuals it's honored by.  It's a beautiful and powerful thing.
