Re: Psalms 56:8

Re: Arachnophobia
Very nice. You pulled off the rhyme well - normally I find rhyming poems hard to swallow, but in this poem it worked nicely. Also well done with your imagery. ...

Re: All Different Yet All The Same
Brilliant atmosphere and strong concept. One small thing - the linebreak at the beginning of the 4th stanza didn't seem to fit with the flow of the rest of the ...

Re: She (or the Whore of Hell)
I also thought this was a really interesting piece. The first say 5 lines and the last couple are probably your strongest, I think you lose the reader a bit ...
