Reviews For: The Glassy Cape

Artemis of the Golden Apple 2008-04-28 ch 1,	abuseWell, this one's a challenge. Let's see...this person has been hurt, in one way or another, and she (he?) wants to escape it by coming to this cape. She feels that she is being mocked by the way the life of this beach keeps going, while her own life has come to a standstill...basically, there is no healing to be found there. It seems beautiful, but the true beauty cannot reach her through all this emotion. Did I get it right?
blackbubbleblue 2008-03-22 ch 1,	abusewow. no idea what it means but wow.
Mairwen 2008-01-14 ch 1,	abuseooh, I enjoyed it thoroughly. "morbid beach" is by far the most unique phrase. This piece displays wonderful creativity.
aslans-sword 2007-10-30 ch 1,	abuseVery nice. It's funny how many words you can use to describe the same thing. I love the flow of it.
Eoz 2007-09-07 ch 1, anon.	abuseIs this about somebody committing suicide by drowning themselves in a lake? 'Cause that's what it sounds like to me.
your harbor 2007-06-25 ch 1,	abuseMucho awesome. Muy brilliant. (I think I know what muy means but I'm not absolutely positive so if it is something, oh, I don't know, insulting I apologize because it was most definitely not intended that way).
I-Wuv-Muffins 2007-06-04 ch 1,	abuseto me the whole poem seems to be about falling in love, and the uselessness of trying to escape it. it's like, things begin to break the surface, as if love is the water, and then, the whole person is immersed in the lake, falling down, never escaping. I'm not sure if that is truly what its about, but that's my interpretation. I'm sure it's interesting to hear interpretations of other people. I really like the rhythm and rhyme. -Amos
Kirane 2007-04-02 ch 1,	abuseThis is really fun to read, since it just sounds so nice. The last line of the first stanza makes sense, but the grammar is sort of weird. (The difficulties of working with rhythm.) The technical meaning of the very last line is also unclear (what is sitting on the beach, if anything?). Okay, I have two different ideas on this. The first stanza seems to suggest someone who's just gotten out of a relationship and needs time to recover and is now falling for someone. The rest of the poem, however, seems to be describing a lake that chooses who to drown, and the victims decompose below the water. I think I must be taking this part too literally. Perhaps these two ideas can be reconciled if the lake is metaphorical, i.e. a lake of love or some such, and it chooses who to draw into love. The person then is completely lost in love, but the love is not returned and so they float along and become depressed (their spirit degrades). In short, I don't have the vaguest idea what this means, but it's very pretty. I hope my ramblings amused you. ;)
ellinikolouloudi 2006-09-24 ch 1,	abuseIt's true, this could be interpreted in many ways. My first impression was that someone was drowning. But that's just me. Awesome poem!
Ladiebug 2006-07-30 ch 1,	abuseI love it. I have no idea what it is that your talking about, but it's so intiricate and deep, it's make you think there's deeper hidden meaning.Very nicely writen. This is just random, but I was reading your profile, and I felt the need to say something about the fact that you hate that your tall. Your not alone! I'm 5'8 and half and hate it too, so hooray for tall writers!We rock! LoL, just had to say that, if it made sense, hope I didn't scare anyone...=)
Singing After Dark 2006-06-25 ch 1,	abusehmm a little unclear as to the meaning, but well written. pretty lyricism. i've read this before and i swear i reviewed...i'm losing my mind. especially llike "pebbles drop, the glass is broken//ripples utter words unspoken." beautiful.oh yeah,I love you =P
