  • Lyric Poetry Re: Promised Place

    I also got the very Victorian Shakespeare feel from this poem which I think really says quite a bit about your character. All the same I shall refrain from such ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: What The Doctor Ordered

    This seems somewhat disconnected to me because the first stanza doesn't quite follow the last in syllables. The first stanza ends quite solidly with golf because of the nice cut ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: The Empowerment

    I find that the beat is broken up with the arise rather than emphasized with it because you have the same lines over and over with a few changes. Generally ...

    The poem didn't really attract me until you reached more of a loose style actually saying something rather than describing things. I feel like the repetitiveness of the word Rain ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Infatuation

    I enjoyed this poem because it not only explained the infatuation in a way that made it seem reasonable, but it also was a last stand at the end rather ...
