shinco 2005-05-23 ch 1,	abuseJames, if you say "I've never loved, and I'll never be loved," you're absolutely wrong. I love you as a friend. God loves you. I'm sure your girlfriend loves you. And life is so much more than science and biological things! Our minds are also part of our souls (which you don't believe in for I don't know why :(...), and love is so much more than just a biological process that occurs in our minds! It's a choice, it's a VERB. And girls are NOT WHORES! Some are... BUT I'M NOT! ARGH! That made me mad! :( Maybe if you read the book "Song of Solomon" again and get it interpretted right, you'll know what love is! And you'll know what relationships REALLY are! Life is full of opportunities, choices, people, RELATIONSHIPS, LOVE, etc. You should really think harder about what you say and the way you say it... I'm sorry, am I flaming? I hate doing that cause I don't wanna hurt anyone's feelings... it's just that if you look harder and think harder about what the Bible says and look at the natural world and the people around you and what's happening, you can certainly see God working. I sure can, and so many people I know can. And I know a lot of people (of course, you do too, right?). So many people are missing the truth and what's really important in this life! And that's you too, James. You've gotta search for God, you can't be lazy and try to make God do everything for you. God won't hand everything to you, you've got a BRAIN and you know how to think and use it in whatever ways you need to. Life isn't necessarily easy, and you can't brush off the hardships or wish they would go away, necessarily. They make you stronger, and if we didn't have them, life wouldn't be worth anything, and we'd all be living in that false paradise you talked about! Oh dear, I hope I'm not offending you... I'm just spilling out my feelings the best way I know how... I'm sorry if I'm bothering you with all this. I guess I'll just leave it up to you to do what you feel you need to do. I can't change you, only God can... course, only if you WANNA change... and you need it... badly... I'm very conservative, and you're very liberal... we're on opposite sides of the spectrum, and yet we somehow get along pretty well... I'll be praying REALLY HARD for you, ok?
ShadowPharoh 2005-03-16 ch 1,	abusewonderful poem. oh and thanks for the review. . .i guess. but for future references, I can you better. don't worry. its a common mistake made by people. i can you better. SP
Nightmare Alley 2005-02-19 ch 1,	abuse"I see girls are whores and not lovers." yawn This whole thing came off as whiney to me. I highly doubt you'll care about my opinion. I just didn't like this one.
wordsworth in a garbage can 2005-02-16 ch 1,	abuseyou're actually one of the most strangely sexual writers I've read. I wouldn't expect it coming from you. "This sexy, awkward, slippery shine." I loved it.
clockwork kiss 2005-02-08 ch 1,	abuseI'm not at all sure about this. It's contradictory; I don't really see a smooth transition or an epiphany for the "dreaming cynic" to move into the "romantic", but that's not my main problem with it. It's... like a puzzle that doesn't quite fit. Did you write pieces at different times and then place them together? The organization/flow is just so... jumpy, for lack of a better word. However, I'll take a break here to say that "The haunting ghost in the machine" was amazing, and that I lovelovelove the imagery there! Another thing: "Those sacks of mostly water/That stumble around", hahaha, although not exactly the kind of imagery one wants in romance poem, I appreciate the blunt truth. The second half of the 4th stanza("It's good") was great, and the 5th stanza continued to be awesome. I would have ended it there, though, because the last stanza lacks a noticeable amount of force/originality. All in all: interesting read with some good points.
Joewhatever 2005-02-07 ch 1,	abuseI don't really know what to say. The wording and imagery was certainly interesting, and you had me from the first line, as it was just such a strange way of describing a human...I wanted to read more. So I did. Anyway, nice write, in that respect, it was...strange. Heh.
Made in U.S.A. 2005-02-03 ch 1,	abuseThat was um truly very "romantic". As cynical as it is, I like it. As ever please keep writing.
twenty-second seduction 2005-02-02 ch 1,	abusewell there's not much i can say; other than that you are an amazing poet and that you have amazing writing skills and all that. heh. adding you to my favorites if thats alright.
bloodtide 2005-01-27 ch 1,	abuse"oh look at me im a published poet which instantly gives me permission to burn other peoples writing just cos i dont agree with them and make judgements on people cos of what they write blah blah blah" hah, i actually thought that you WERENT actually ignorant, but i suppose you are.
Resplendent-in-Fire-and-Blo... 2005-01-27 ch 1,	abuseSweet, if a tad misogynistic, though I expect that was deliberate. At its best, sex is fun, at its worst, one partner's means to an end. Saying that, the first stanza of the last verse reminded me of Moorcock's Werther de Goethe.
passionfruitnightmare 2005-01-26 ch 1,	abuseits all strangely true. you truly are a romantic. chokes and drowns in sarcasm
Bleeding Ink 2005-01-25 ch 1,	abuseSounds sexist, but who really cares. I like it. It's the truest, most secular poem I've read yet. -Jade
AntiPleasure 2005-01-23 ch 1,	abuse"Sex sells,Sell me yours.Dear." LOL very blunt. Interesting piece. Also interesting what you consider uhm, romantic. But, what more can we expect from cynical and egotistic James? ( I love you really lol) The format is all over the place, but that's fine because the words speak louder. I actually like this. Good word choices and lots of random thoughts all put together to make a basic statement. Jenna xoxo
nut jab 2005-01-23 ch 1,	abusegirls are whores and men are...? ^_^. Oh, but good poem.
