kelley1987 4/15/04 . chapter 1This is good. But I do have one small criticism..lol. I'm guessing that this is set in the early 1900's? If so, then I would suggest changing the line "I was gotten up and dresed by a house slave..." and "A slave girl burned a dish for supper and she was whipped." Because that suggests that slavery exists in the story and slavery was abolished during the Civil War. But anyway...lol. I like the fact that you keep comparing the two girls' lives. Very good writing. Keep it up! :) |
becks13 4/14/04 . chapter 1I really like this. Very creative. I like the vivid discriptions. |
Rigalphantisi911 4/13/04 . chapter 1she had better have given you full marks on this. its awesome! i like how you kind of compare the two lives, but don't outright say whose who. this is a really great poem. |
Getuie 4/13/04 . chapter 1Okay, let the non-English spell checking critic step up first ;-) "get as much cone as I can" - done? "filing in son after the sun" - soon? Anyway, after that... This really IS a piece with interesting comparisons. In one sense, spiritually, you wonder which one of the two really has the riches of life... Well thought out and well executed in my opinion. |
Sara Bickley 4/12/04 . chapter 1Was this really written impromptu? It's quite nice. I like how you didn't force the parallels, and didn't (for the most part) hammer them home. |
