Reviews For: I Love You My Friend

SCD 2004-12-05 ch 1,	abuseAghh, your stuff is intense and makes my soul hurt. lol. No, really. "The beast we tie down with stakes of poetry and song.With chains of philosophy and prose." Fantastic metaphor. I love the meat motif too.
Made in U.S.A. 2004-11-14 ch 1,	abuseWow I adore this! Very T.S. Elliot but about one of my favorite people ever Nietzche. This was one of the most beautiful things that I have ever read on fictionpress or anywhere for that matter. You truly are one of the most gifted people and one of the only worthwhile to read and review. As always I love your style and keep writing :D
Melissa Lea Night 2004-11-01 ch 1,	abuseone word. fabulous.
Pimpled Boy 2004-10-26 ch 1,	abuseWow, this is indeed a very wonderful poem. No wonder you say that my poem sucks to the core... Now I know why! I'm going to learn from your "poetisising" techniques...
Cthulhu 2004-10-17 ch 1,	abuseWoo hoo! The man does it again, great poem (as usual)!
Ulyaoth 2004-10-13 ch 1,	abuse"Or should I just go to a graveyard and discuss philosophy with a corpse." So, is God dead? Is he Death? Both? Do you have any real clue what you're talking about, or are you just heaping on whatever sound bites you learned from your favorite philosophers in a desperate, pathetic attempt to be edgy? You're the kind of person that would consider pouring cow's blood on a stick figure a major artistic style. I'm pretty sure you think you are Zarathustra, ripping apart the STOOPID'S IDEAS OF REALITY AND GOD IS DEAD LA LA LA, but you really want to know what you are? You are the corpse that Zarathustra will initially carry around. You have no real zest, no real interest. If anything, you're a Meursault. Except Meursault would never have had as much bile as you, viewing hanging on to such emotions just as weakening to the human soul as hanging on to Christianity would. In other words, unless you're some clever parody, you can't even get the absurd right. How pathetic is that? -Ulyaoth Lite, Architect Extraordinary.

TJ Henri 2004-10-07 ch 1,	abuseWell, I think I've figured out just why people call this perfect. It's because you're one of the few who actually has the balls to go out in public and say these things, rather than take notes on them and write essays in a philosophy class and then forget about them when the drinks roll in. I don't really have to read any of your poetry anymore: Maggots, meat, Shakespeare, Eliot, Waiting for Godot, Dawkins, Maggots, meat, oblivion, etc. However, I like how you integrated someone other than your disillusioned self into this one. And please, FOR GOD'S SAKE (haha), stop removing and reposting. You're raping my inbox with Author Alerts. Damnit.
xo-lilacsxandxlolita-ox 2004-10-06 ch 1,	abuseWow, now that was a very interesting perspective and twist at the end. You always have something interesting, and as an added bonus, the poems always shift in perspective once you read it over again. Isn't that neat? I'm beginning to suspect that you can't do anything wrong. So, the only thing within my eloquence to say is that this is pure perfection. The poem had a nice flow to it, and I simply loved some of the allusions you've referred to, and I also liked the symbolism. It seems like you have meat as a symbol. If I hadn't read any of your works before, I wouldn't have thought of meat as anything (I'm not really a vegetarion, but I just don't like to eat meat) This transcends one of the greatest things that all human beings fear because it's the unknown, and it embraces the subject of death and how people die the same deaths. It is very thought-provoking ,and I've enjoyed reading it. The wording is impeccable, and I have no complaints there. God is certainly put into a different perspective in here. Yes, it is true that I do have some religious perspective in some of my writings, but I am interesting to know why this supposedly higher authority has swayed so many masses of people. This one entity even caused whole masses to go into massive genocides and carry out killings with religious justification. It goes with all cultures to justify their actions of killing, such as the Aztecs sacrificing human prisoners for their god Huitzilpoctli (I know, that's probably spelled wrong...) and then there's those witch huntings and burnings in Salem. That intrigues me a lot, but it doesn't persuade me into believing in God. However, I can understand from other people's perspective on why they believe in God. Perhaps it makes things simpler for them and defines their reality. As for me, I try to observe things from an indifferent position. And it's a very interesting perspective, I tell you. Anyway, sorry if I got a little carried away, because I want to make this review worthwhile to read. I'm sorry to hear that about your friend, and I think that people should appreciate your things a little bit more. Hm, well, the only advice I can give you about getting more reviews is this. 1: You go and review other people. I've done this, and I've mostly recieved reviews from people. But you've got to make the review more in depth, reflecting good points as well as bad points. It seems like people appreciate long reviews that give them something to think about. I suggest reviewing people that have few reviews themselves, and it would be a nice surprise for them. Also, this is a great way to make yourself known on Fictionpress. Yeah, Fictionpress kinda blows these days 'cause there are good stories out there that don't have as many reviews as they should. 2: You go connect with the same kind of people like yourself. Now, this might be a little tedious if you go out and search for the people, but I have to say that you'll have a greater chance of success if you do. Anyway, I have to say we both have something in common because we're both fellow athiests. If you found some other athiests out there, then they'd definitely love your poems, and might even get some gut-busting laughs out of them :) Well, that's the only advice I can give now...sorry. Hm, well, if you want more reviews, I'll try getting everyone from my writing group to review some of your stuff. Oh, yeah, thanks for the reviews! They were very intelligent and very complimentary. Don't compliment me too much, though, or else my head will swell and I can't go through my doorway! Haha! Anyway, I'll see you next review! Au revoir! chibichocobo
