I just clicked "Add New Work" and

here I am typing and

a fly is buzzzing by my ear and

I'm wondering what the difference is

between scream

and yell.

I know this is pretty old, but I found it in “new posts” so what the heck? I’ll review it. Anyghost, this little poem was really funny! I’m laughing right now at the idea of someone just opening “add new work” and just being like “yeah, sure, let’s type whatever comes to mind.” Also, in case you were wondering, a yell is typically not as loud or intense as a scream. If someone’s screaming, then generally they’re in pain or they’re extremely angry. Hope this helped!

Wow, I%u2019m 22 years old now and I got an email from this site that people commented on a post of mine. I wrote this a decade ago, when I was just a 12 year old kid. Feeling old. This was a special place for me back then. Thanks for the random nostalgia trip. %u2B50%uFE0F

This is a fun and enjoyable mini lyrical literary work that I like because of its simplicity and straightforwardness. There seems to be no need for a real in-depth analysis because sometimes this kind/type of lyrical written work doesn't urge for it. Sometimes we just need to be reminded of what is in front of us without overthinking it. The section where you wrote "I'm wondering what the difference is between scream and yell" is very relatable. As a writer, I will probably forever and always have to look up the difference. Being a writer is hard like that, lol. Overall, it's a lovely piece of written work. Short, sweet, and simple. Succinct writing with understandable content.

Hey, Lucky! I'm Rosie! :D

Overall, this is a cute little piece. Considering its size, I quite like it; it's cute and has a lot of personality. My favorite part is the last two lines. My mind thinks like that, comparing words and phrases in my mind and considering what's the same about them and what's different. I'm sort of strange that way. :D

So, anyway, I just thought I'd let you know that I like this and that I think it's endearing. I hope to see more of your work!

Always keep writing!
