Re: Endings (for Snoink!)
So I think you captured the angsty and overdramatic thing. It's not unbearingly overdramatic, so that's good. The one thing that acts against you (and it acts against you in ...

Re: Social Omnipotence
I liked the idea of emotion as an enemy in this, the conscience of the character causing the problems. It took a couple of times of reader to get all ...

Re: animus
Hm.... Well, I wasn't incredibly fond of this as a poem. It was a good question to ponder, to expand the horizon of thoughts. However, though it makes us think, ...

Re: War Drums
This was amazing. I enjoyed this very much, and here's the reasons that I can actually give. The fragmented flow was perfect. The images and language use were powerful. You ...

Re: A family is a church
The repetition of line structure in some parts, and even the limit thereof, was lovely. You used that very well. You provided great imagery and contrasting of themes, between what ...

Re: Pickup
Great poem, and the narrative structure was virtually flawless. However, I do think you should have carried that romantic intensity further. It missed a climax. You build up the audience's ...
