This is a beautiful piece. I love how you can "feel" a memory, and as silly a concept as tasting an eraser would be to me, it adds so much ...

Hello again. This one's got potential. To me, it reminds me of people who hide from everything--from life itself. It seems like you're calling out to these types and saying, ...

Greetings again! I decided to check out some of your other work and found this. I have to say I really like it; I'm a sucker for the medieval, damsel-in-distress ...

Hello! First of all I want to welcome you to YWS. I hope you'll enjoy your stay! I'm first going to quote your poem with my thoughts in red; I ...
