 shadow-spirit 2004-07-08 . chapter 1again, strong use of rehtorical device, u poetery realy feels like u r reaching out for answers. its very giving, as aposed 2 'selfish' inword looking writing, htis is also shown with ur sparse use of 1st person personal pro-nouns such as I. i like it. it engages the reaser alowing empathy with ur subject. also in all ur poems ive read so far u seem to like making ur last point in ur last line, again this is a very powerfull device as it leaves ur last sentement ringing in the readers mind even after they have finished reading. finaly i think ur chaoice of topic is delacate but u have the tact to say enough withought too much. this is cleverly understated, balance of mistery and fact with out too much melodrama. it feels real. it feels genuine. its a brave poem. congrats! |
