    When I was reading this, I felt uncomfortable and stuff--and I'm 14 like RubberDuck's sister. I think that this could border on smut (porn) and I think you need to ...

    This was a good poem, but it was a very confusing structure. Is it about math? Science? Cooking with numbers? ;) And also, try and bring the guy in my ...

    YAY! First review! Well, what can I say? This is a very good piece of writing. I have virtually no complaints except for a couple of spelling errors. "Lied" should ...

    This is a good commentary, but what about pop, classical, rock? I know you cater to your personal tastes, but dig deeper. Otherwise, a lot of people will be like ...

    Very good. The pacing was excellent. I loved your use of italics and normal font states. I don't really need anything to critique. The rest has covered it. But I ...
