    *Wince.* I hate seeing archaic English forms butchered like this... though to be fair you've done a better job than most I've seen. Correct your "thees and thous" and I'll ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: A Dark Eyed Girl

    I don't know; I disagree with Colleen on a few points, particularly the example she gave. I think the hallmark of poetry is that it doesn't need as many words ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: You Can't Spell Cyanide Without C-ya

    I have to say, whence, you've got to be one of my favorite poets on this site. You have a very unique and clear style, and you've certainly got a ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: Missed Opportunity

    I d'no if I can agree with Chandni on this one; your rhymes did feel rather forced to me, especially the "curb/Serb" one. I will agree that the ending was ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: "Cat"

    Meh. Your images were solid, but the rhyme scheme really didn't do anything for me, and your structure (i.e., linebreaks and the like) is odd. Better luck next time?

  • Narrative Poetry Re: Bangin'

    I agree with whence and Clau. Not only was the poem itself inane and incredibly amateurish, but the poor spelling, grammar, and punctuation usage completely turned me off. Also, please ...

  • Narrative Poetry Re: It's red, it's blue

    I agree with everything whence said. It's whimsical and fun, but doesn't have much real value. Cute. :)

  • Fantasy Novels Re: The Turquoise Scarab#1 *PUT ON HOLD FOR COMPOSTING*

    Goose and sworddance stole all my comments! Lol. I guess all I can say is: watch your paragraph breaks, congratulations on a minimum of grammatical/spelling errors, and write more soon, ...

  • Poetry Discussion Re: Rhetorical questions in poetry

    There is no such thing as a rhetorical question in poetry--or at least, there shouldn't be. The poem should make you want to answer, or at least contemplate an answer, ...

  • Other Poetry Re: We Are Three

    At first glance, this poem left me scratching my head. Then I went all English major on it, and fell in love. If I had to analyse this for a ...

  • Other Poetry Re: Frustrated on Tuesday

    :lol: I hear you. One thing--pay more attention to rhythm and flow, like Clau said. I rather liked the morbidness of it in connection with the topic, too... I know ...

  • Other Poetry Re: Galilee's Dream

    First of all... it's Galilei. Galileo Galilei. Galilee is, as Ink pointed out, a Biblical city. And I second everything Brad said. Scrap this, try reading some decent poetry, and ...
