Re: 1.2 miles to lake

Re: Drunk Driving
Generic subject+approach, I'm afraid. However, the diction is good. A few grammatical errors here and there, but I think you could actually add more to represent the speaker being really ...

Re: Guess What I Am

Re: Read Once Immediately Preceding Sleep
A weird short story I wrote last year. Probably won't make sense the first time you read it - at least from my experience of other readers. Sorry for the ...

Re: True Love
Nicely done! Certainly much better than what I expected from the title, and not nearly as cliche. - The main thing is that you overuse question marks. I understand why ...

Re: Heartstrings
Oddly enough, I wrote a poem with the same title a year or two back (since changed simply to Strings , heh). Though, yours is nicer. I love the "sinister ...

Re: Demon-Run Heaven (edited)
Older poem than my previous submission (which is the latest poem I've done). Where to even begin - her hair, let loose to ensnare and bind me? Nah. Her vexatiously ...

Re: The Insomniacs Dream
