    Very interesting beginning. Just a few punctuation things you might want to check, like once you used a semi-colon instead of a comma. But minor things. Now, reading through this, ...

  • Poetry » Dramatic, General Re: Shattered

    Very interesting symbols used. I like the heavy emphasis on decay, the rust and the gears roughly grinding together. Technical note: Second stanza "I’m to far gone to be saved ...
