this poem is almost the opposite of richard cory
i like it more not because of the happy ending but because of the character in a few lines he is deeply described making him actually seem real

Why did you choose such a person? Any particular interest? Do you happen to have a good biography of Aaron Stark?
By the way, I do like your poem

I found this poem when looking for some other poetry. My first thought was that I wanted to be dissasociated from the subject from whom is it takes its title. The poet draws a sharp picture of what my namesake "Aaron" is like. His description may be a bit extreme, but I believe that I would immediately recognizethe other "Aaron" if we were to suddenly meet on some dark street. This is the beauty of word pictures that are done well using a flowing vocabulary that could describe a real person.
The poem seems to cut off after a couple stanzas. Is there more?
