    I agree with miyaviloves- it seems a bit flat at the moment. Nice to see you're taking critiques on board though! I think a bit of rearranging (regarding line breaks ...

  • Poetry » Other, General Re: why?

    This was certainly very emotional, and I liked the unique way you explained through questions, rather than simple sentences, up until the last verse. You clearly have an instinctive grasp ...

    My reaction: Wahuh? There's something majorly missing here, and guess what it is? Coherency. I'm really not getting the point of this poem! I stop and smile, And think a ...

    THis was very good. A nice little piece that flowed well (like Ari said) and didnt overwhelm the story with historical detail. Well done! I'm going to be picky and ...

    I liked this. They rhythm was unusual but smooth and fast moving, and each line seemed well-balanced. The imagery was awesome (in a revolting kind of way, LOL) and maintained ...
