    Your language was simply not enough to hold my attention for that long. This poem is too long. Condensation is your ally, here, there is a lot that is unnecessary. ...

    some grammar mistakes right off the bat: the first stanza should read Soaring, flying so high my heart goes out to you as a warm breeze passes us by. or ...

  • Poetry » Dramatic, General Re: What Happens Under a Canopy of Sea

    that line should read "The worms dug themselves up" instead of had dug. The whole poem suffers from... overpopulation like that. One thing i do like is the use of ...
