brokendreams21 2006-02-12 ch 1,	Ack. I feel guilty. I really hope that I didn't "delude" anybody...and the suicidal poems sorta scare me. I don't read them. Hmm...I seem to live in a very cliched work...thus my works are slightly cliched (if not all). But I try. Your poem really expresses a lot of opinion and it actually is quite funny. It caused some sort of contraversy and that in itself is funny. Yes it was a bit harsh...(there are only so many ideas in the world...) but it has truth to it. And I guess the truth hurts. This is so confusing. I really do have mixed feelings on your topic. So I'll stop here. But your poem was quite smartly written and I enjoyed it (although I do not agree with some things.)
Furhead 2006-02-08 ch 1,	i must first notify you that i have read a review posted by yourself on a poem by miss "Duck8", a little harsh if you ask me.-your poem - There are thousand of poems on the website that basically spend a long time expressing one sentiment, yours is no exeption. you have wasted 188 word in portraying a sentiment that can be summed up in 13 words; "Fictionpress is crap and i hate the poems i think i'm better than"-in line five you say that what people say is "all the same", a gross generalisation, however this applies to yourself as well as your poem "hint" also talks about how you loath inferior poetry, highly hipocritical if i might add. As an addition to this i believe that the word "" in this sentence is highly unnecesary and lowers the tone substantially.-In your review of "Unbrocken Bars" by Duck8 I noticed that you mentioned "you're left with a poem that is basically repeating its sentiment in different forms", a sentiment i find also aplies to your "poem"-nice work
Duck8 2006-02-05 ch 1,	A good poem it flows well and your use of language is solid but i find the content slightly insulting. this is what you think and i have no objection to that but you didn't seem to consider that these scribbling may have worth, that the words spoken could be true for the authors and if you don't want to know about the darker sides of peoples lives then don't read them.
cheeseworth 2006-02-04 ch 1,	I think your head's in the right place, your vocubalry's advanced without being pretentious, and you've got more depth to what you're saying than most - but that's about it. If you want to make a statement, do it creatively. Sure, I agree with most of what you're saying - but ah, the same way you're not impressed with angsty writing up here I'm not impressed with your way of saying it. Your line breaks are uninteresting and you don't use them well enough, sentence structures are repeated too often, and uh, the thing that irks me most is the fact that your criticism is essentially unremarkable. Don't get me wrong, I think you're much better than many writers here, and that your sense of rhythm's pretty impressive, but I'm trying to be constructive here. To me, at least, your poetry is too...loose, and you need to compact what you're saying. Sometimes you sound like a performance poet, but without the oomph. My problem is not with your condescension - I actually enjoy snobbery immensely - but it doesn't engage me. Sacarstic, but unfunny. P.S. It's 'sycophant'.
Desperate Hope 2006-02-03 ch 1,	dont know if u got my e-mail. but here it is.Ok. I'd like to start by apologizing for my previous conduct. It is true that I need to edit my work before I publish. And yes it is true that a lot of people on fiction press ** a lot. I hope that I do not come of as one of them. If I do than I hope that maybe I can convince u other wise. I was rather offended by the fact that you said my poem was not very good but after considerations realize that you are to some degree right. It is choppy and simplistic. I need to do allot of work on my writing before I post it. So thank you for being honest. Like you said self-expression is all around us. I do agree. I hope that thought this letter I can adequately explain my self. I would like to ad that I am still in high school. But about my tactics you have a point maybe I should use the emotion to get the ideas and then expand on them. I would appreciate it if you would read "crimson tears" and give it a good honest review. I spent some time on it after I got the basic ideas down and think that is quite good. But that is just my opinion and that does not really count because I am the writer. Sincerely, Desperate Hope
krystal-jasna 2006-02-02 ch 1,	i guess this is a place where we learn to grow and mature with writing. you are a bit harsh in this poem though. honestly, i have to admit the poem that i had written was hot off the press work. anyway, i want to thank you for pointing out my spelling error..as for my poem..i guess i'll try to work on it because i see what you mean. i am not perfect and i hope if you do see any more serious mistake in my poems please point them. i want do want to improve. i find your criticism constructive. thanks.
thebigbadwolf 2006-02-02 ch 1,	you're very opinionated. that's cool. it kind of hurts but, that's you. take some time to understand why people write the things they do.
dex2468 2006-01-28 ch 1,	I can understand that you may be annoyed be what people write but don't you think people have a right to get everythin off their mind. It's a place where very few know you and so the criticism isn't biased cos people know you.
Moondog Dozier 2006-01-24 ch 1,	True, while there are quite a few suicide poems here, and writings of generalized angst, you may have overlooked the works of others who create works in a wide range of topics. I do appreciate your constructive criticism, and look forward to more of your works, because you have an honesty of opinion that is necessary to be a helpful reviewer.
Jay Son Mun 2006-01-24 ch 1,	Nice and true. Those words in mine mean nothing and I am trying to figure it out myself. Sorry.
Prevaricate 2006-01-24 ch 1,	Amen.
