    Simple and pleasing to the inner ear; I'd love to hear it performed. While the ideas aren't very original, the images themselves are vivid and well-presented, especially the image of ...

  • Lyrics Re: Coffee

    Not the most unique or complex of songs, and the word choice could be stronger, but, holistically, I really enjoyed this. =)

  • Lyrics Re: Don't let me fall

    The lyrics, while not incredibly original, are quite sweet, and I could see them being the lyrics to a successful song. The only thing I didn't like was the "yeeeeaaahhhh" ...

  • Lyrics Re: Warning read at your own risk

    This is a manifestation of popculture-induced incompetence. Amen. I have to say, while it's not my cup of tea I have a healthy respect for rap as an artform--as long ...

  • General Articles Re: Just a Friend

    I won't say much about the writing itself, which--structurally at least--was very solid. Good job on that. As for the content... well, keep your chin up, duckie, yes? It happens ...

  • General Articles Re: Paper cranes

    Your use of punctuation and spacing are appalling. It makes it very difficult for the reader to comprehend what you're writing about. As for the content itself: You've saturated this ...

  • General Articles Re: My Oedipus Complex

    I'm afraid Cade's stolen all of my comments, and most of the words I'd use to describe this--especially "juvenile." As a teacher, I'd give this not much more than a ...
