 no.peace.los.angeles 2006-04-28 . chapter 1Ooh, yes. I love the second stanza. I'm not a huge fan of the fizzy pop reference, just b/c it's a little long and doesn't fit with the rest of the poem, IMHO. Though I agree that someone could be that. (I did a metaphor exercise once where I had this guy I liked being "an unopened bottle of Mountain Dew, ready to explode into the world." It was fun.) Anyway, yes, I liked the rest of this. Keep writing! :) |

 star blanket river child 2005-12-06 . chapter 1"his voice is better then oxygen his finger tips are all the gravity i need." That's amazing. That line is definitely going to be in my head for a while. Also, I loved "i am yesterday" just because it's beautiful. And, of course, I loved the ending- it's awesome. So beautiful, so sad, so… you. Beautiful, sad, amazing- the three best words to fit your writing. Never stop. (Hint, hint- what does "last pieces I upload on this account for a long time, possibly forever" mean? Are you leaving? Or are you just making a new account? You do realize I'll go crazy without your writing. Please say you're not stopping writing… you have too much talent to waste! Please don't go.) |
 Aquafied 2005-12-05 . chapter 1the title sums it all up.it kind of reminds me of no perfection can seek such a perfection until we all waste away to reality. |
