I have taken the phrases in this poem
I thought them very well written
Forgive me I needed some homework to turn in
Tomorrow for English Lit^_~
I liked your poem very much. It certainly was a good idea and written in such a way that one could easily understand-
so much for human nature!?
Good work.
Keep them coming,
Rich

If a connection is made between Williams' opening and closing stanzas being supported by the conflict of the enclosed material, to your opening and closing stanzas as having the same relative value, then the enclosed and supporting material also obtains meaning.
Yours, however, paints a much more grisly rationale for human behavior. Perhaps.
What I did find interesting was that aside from the imagery and development, your offering almost requires the reader to maintain concentration on two levels to achieve maximum emotional impact: the image of the person in the river and the image of the true hedonist who couldn't be delayed.
An interesting write! ^^

THIS IS JUST TO SAY, by William Carlos Williams
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
