    I agree with Clau on the rhyme-rhythm stuff. I think you have some really interesting phrases in here, and then some...not so interesting ones. This piece would be much better ...

    Lol, sounds like something I would write in English class (that is, when I'm not writing hate notes to Charles Dickens). I like the idea of words being like water, ...

    Dialogue: not as realistic as in previous episodes. An example: Jonathon nodded. “How do you do it, Kyle?” Kyle furrowed his brow. “Do…what?” “Keep from loving peop
