  • Lyric Poetry Re: Inspiration!

    I agree that in ther beginning it appeared to me that you were going to rhyme and then changed your mind. Also, the poem, as a whole, seemed very scattered ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Something I Let Go Of

    This was bland and relatively cliche. I Let It Go In May, I'd Love To It One More Time, Those lines seemed rather awkward and a little forced. The poem ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: When Time Passes with Quiet Feet

    This was very well written and I understand how hard it is to make something sound impressive with such limited means and complicated rhyme pattern. All in all, under all ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Turn Out the Lights

    This was a fairly good poem, but it was repetitive and a bit cliche. I mean, it had the average "god is beautiful" and "the world is beautiful" but it ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Lost and Forgotten

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Leisure to Dream

    This has amazing potential. It is a bit crowded, in a sense - there are many words that sort of compress the meaning. But, all in all, I would not ...

  • Dramatic Poetry Re: imprints of him

    This...wow. The imagery is beautiful. In a stabbing attempt at constructive critizism, I could say that you could try to make your point clearer, but this is pretty weak... Your ...

  • Lyric Poetry Re: Risking Raindrops

  • Fantasy Novels Re: PaperCutt - Prologue

  • Other Poetry Re: you know, you could have said something

    Well, this was excruciatingly crude, but rated fairly for it. I don't...exactly...follow it. I get the whole part about taking a shit and fucking family members, but not much else. ...
