Re: Blood
Hi there, well as said before. This has the typical image, 'oh no one cares, let me just slit my wrists, see what happens.' If your picture was a depressed ...

Re: Ode to the Gambler (Victory)
Hi Howler. Amy is right, stop asking questions. Asking a question in a poem is okay moderately, but if each stanza has/is a question, the reader has to stop. It ...

Re: !! Needs a name, the one I had didn't fit it
Hi Fixed, Thought I'd drop a review while I'm at it. I'm tired and not in the greatest mood, so I warn you ahead of time. A poem about relationships/cheating? ...

Re: The Wheels in Motion
Hi there. I find your writing has a lot of potential Oza (if you don't mind me calling you that.) I like the knitting of the words and how you ...

Re: Losing Faith

Re: I remember
Hi Vampy. Well the idea is nice, not exactly what I perceive as 'original' due to all of the creation stories in all sorts of religions. But I suppose you ...

Re: Little Death
Hi there. Well, I'm a little torn over this poem. The idea is really great but the way you did it was forced (the rhyme). You have a good use ...

Re: Memories of Autumn
Hi there! This was nice, just ugh, I've seen this to many times and it seemed to me it would work more for lyrics rather then poetry. It sort of ...

Re: What is this feeling?
Hi Lily. The repetition in this poem is awkward and annoying. It's much too forced for the poem to breath and live. You've throttled your conventional idea with awkward, unflowing ...

Re: Mending Heart
Oh dear Forest. This is terribly generic (in a different way then the others think) and by no means matches up to your other poems. The lines are threadbare and ...
