This isn't a bad poem by any means, but I think it struck me as being especially muddy. "Youth crime" is such a far-reaching topic, and this poem doesn't seem ...

I really liked this, and I've come back and read it twice now. I hesitated to review because I couldn't quite put my finger on what about this was disconcerting. ...

Ooh. I liked this, and then never reviewed it. I don't usually advocate for the use of "you" when writing. Too often, it's confusing and creates a crack in the ...

This is an interesting piece, and I do think it's a good read, but a difficult one. I don't think your vocabulary is too advanced, or that your sentence structure ...

This poem seems to be a little disorganized to me. The ideas just don't seem quite cohesive, and it reads a little bit like a rough draft that could use ...

I really like this, and I would love to see more of this! Wind whispered through the trees as I ran. My paws hit the ground almost silently; quite an ...

Well. I was going to go in and tear this apart, like I like to do, but this is a fantastic story. There are a few grammatical errors, which will ...

This is a very nice poem--sharp and short. The only thing that frustrated me was the sense of disappointment once it was over. I would love to see you expand ...

Cool! I'm going to go through this piece-by-piece, because you've got a few grammatical errors and some sentences with awkward structure. I never thought that the day would come; that ...

I'm going to disregard grammar and spelling flaws, as it seems you have help with that already! Overall, I think this comes across as being a little cliched. Because we ...

I would agree with those who have mentioned the abrupt way in which you've presented the troll. Also, I might venture that it is overwritten. Your description, in parts, is ...

I'm going to critique this in parts, because there were a few things that really stood out to me (good and bad). From an overall standpoint, I do like that ...

This is very nice! Your tone here is very blanketed, and I mean that in a complimentary way. It seems to stay consistant throughout the poem, and that makes it ...

This is a very typically rhyme structure. I don't think it's a terrible poem, but I detest the opening (it is very formulaic and simplistic), and some of the pairing ...
