Hey!

I must say that with every piece I read I become more amazed at your writing. Your metaphors are deep and make me think in a way I've never really pondered before. I really liked your view of laundry detergent- it cleans and disenfects clothes, and memories. I just thought it was handy for getting last week's ravioli out of my new shirt *smiles*.

My favorite part, or set of stanzas, was the last. Lint in the catcher of the dryer; in the end, that's what we all become. Our gleaming life of memories lasts only so long, and then the lint it thrown out and the clothes left too small. Like I said before, this poem has really made me stop and just THINK.

I applaud you, indeed.

Ooh. Cool comparison.

Wow..that's all I have to say right now. Just wow. Nice metaphors. I'd really appreciate it if you reviewed one of my stories.

Wonderfully written. I really like how you were able to capture so many different scenes and related them to detergent, alot somewhat strange came out great. You presented a well thought out poem here.

Wow, this poem is awesome! At first, I was like, "Why did this person write about laundry detergent and put it under the category 'Life?' Isn't it supposed to be put under Humor or something?" But then when I read it, I realized it really did have to do with life! I love how you compared the laundry detergent to reality. Both the good times and the bad. What a brilliant idea. And very nicely written!
