Okay, so I know there's an art to this kind of poetry, but this is my first swing at it, so enjoy!



X's can be dangerous when capital-
-ized, ized through the heart into
sadness and for-for-get, the table
uponnn which <>-the notes are
spRAWled, into an electrically charged
key writer, pens and [12D] ink, mass
acres and massacres of words and (?)
inkinessness, killing* suffixes and
storing the prefixes for-for-get this
world, unworld, verb: (uhn-uhn-
uhnnn*) zippigngn through spiders
and webs of spellcheck test, measured/
measured calculations in Latin again,
because Priests, Nobles, Robots
could read and write and break...break...
down (?), stabbedx with the low
case, a case of ADHDDDD "x."

I enjoyed this a lot. What was the inspiration behind this poem? And how are we to read the last line. Do we read the multiple d's or is that for effect?

I loved this. It was quite hard to wrap my head around though. Maybe try stanza's to make reading easier. Since i've never come across anything like this before it's hard to give a critic. But there's nothing bad about this. it's fantastic! I feel like I can relate to it and what you write about is very relevant for us YWS users. Great Job!

I thought this was awesome, but I also cannot actually critique it because I've never come across this kind of poetry before and am not sure on what concepts to judge it...

Hello, I'm here as requested!

This is some poem you've got. :) I have to be honest, and say I wasn't kind of confused at first, because I wasn't sure if you meant it to be that way. I like what you did with it, making it very original in your way. It sets a mood and emotions, because it almost tells us how to say it in our head (if that makes sense... ;)). I would like, though, if you could put it all in stanzas or something, because with the original style, it's a little bit hard to follow. This will probably help the readers to follow the poem all the way without having to read it more than one time. :)

Overall, great job! It was a pleasure to read. :)
