'did you know' by 'through shattered dawn' is also posted elsewhere on the web i found it here [link]
posted as a comment =) i dunno if the artist here and there are one and the same; it just seemed unusual to me that so few people had read and commented on that poem, so i googled it ...

i hope i've not done wrong in mentioning this; i just care about a writer's rights.
