  • Poetry » Lyrical, General Re: Reason for treason

    I don't like the old english. It has no place in contemporary poetry. Also I didn't like the rhyme scheme. It smothered the poem into oblivion. I mean even the ...

  • Article / Essay » General, General Re: A Lamentation on Singlehood

    I like your nonchalant style. There's a sort of inner struggle going on in this piece that made me enjoy it. I'm not sure. The whole insistence that you aren't ...

  • Short Story » General, General Re: The Pillows

    I don't know, I just don't know if chinky is an appropriate way to describe his eyes. As a story, it is so incomplete that it's almost impossible to critique. ...

  • Poetry » Narrative, General Re: Pirate's journal

    I don't like being told how to review :P the word deity seems to be misused? Either that or I didn't understand the line. Also I am unfamiliar with that ...

    the song is by three doors down. How do I know that ? Because I once was in middle school. This is a highly sentimental piece that relies heavily on ...

  • Poetry » Other, General Re: our young, too

    I find this piece semi-impenetrable. It has the same cryptic flair that most of your work seems to have, everything coated in this enigmatic style that seems to border on ...

    this is sort of epic, I... I like how blue this poem is, the atmosphere... it really creates this rainy miasma of ocean waves and brine. Its good that you ...

  • Poetry » Narrative, General Re: Lipstick on His Collar

    you don't need to modify shirt with "whiteness of." Also I didn't like the string of 'ing' words, and I didn't get the 'no less alien' line. 'Dark windows to ...

  • Poetry » Other, General Re: The Trees of My Woods

    no... the archaic words are not working. Write a contemporary poem for goodness sakes. And why is there a dash at the end of every line? Not necessary. I don't ...

    the best one was the first and the last. The first because the seamless transition, the last because the effortlessness in which it was transformed. Fun exercise! Kind of reminds ...
