 Spare Change 2006-07-20 . chapter 1It's not bad. The first 5 or 6 lines were really great, but by the end of the poem everything becomes incoherent. The repetitions weren't done as smoothly as I had assumed upon second reading.
Anyways, I like the flow of it. It would be nice if you could have played around with the formatting a bit more.
(ps. careful when you write feedback. sometimes you contradict yourself just to sound nasty. haha. just a random comment :D) |
 onyxdragonflyy 2006-07-10 . chapter 1Haute Couture... sounds beautiful.
All of your words are so colorful and breath taking to the ears. "..verdigris colour", "..pendantic foppery..." Refreshing.
Stunning. Your words are an inspiration. Now I feel like I myself should write something.. lol.. ^^ |
 Elfin Knight 2006-07-10 . chapter 1M, yum. I like the attitude. |
 La Vida 2006-07-09 . chapter 1Nothing is Haute Couture anymore |
 xHarlequinx 2006-06-20 . chapter 1Well, reading this, I'm able to say-totally unbiased-that I haven't the slightest idea what you're writing about. In the mess of vocabulary and fancy words you've mashed together to form something that, although like poetry, is more like a semblance of the basic idea of the writing form, I can't even pick out a basic scheme to the piece. Mind you, I love flowery vocabulary, but when it's used in the place of good, understandable work, it leaves me empty. Nice vocabulary, nice words-but where's the skill involved in this?
I'm sure I'm just one of the many people slightly miffed about your harsh, biting, and insulting critiques to their much labored-over stories and fiction works. I like criticism. I value constructive pointers. But you've gone way off the mark with many of your reviews.
We don't need to be slapped in the face with the rotting corpse of a nasty insult. None of us, you or I, are perfect. Maybe it's time you came to terms with the ideas of opinion, consideration, and respect. Then, your reviews might be thought over, rather then making the author upset or purely irritated.Merci, and I'm done now. Think on this a little, though. It may do you some good. |
 bread and circuses 2006-05-21 . chapter 1Thanks for your review! I'm serious here. Thank you for actually being honest, and telling me that it was too teenage-y. I thought that when I was writing it, but it was based on a prompt, and I need to do something to stave off writer's block. And it's a good thing I posted it, because now I can improve. Thanks for actual criticism. THANK YOU.
This is in no way a 'suck up so they come back and review nicely' review. It's probably better for my confidence that you never review me again, because there are some poems on there I'm actually a little proud of. It's just a thank you.
Ok, your poem: I don't understand this - I'm sure that's not surprising - but I did enjoy it. The lines about the Great Barrier Reef gave a brilliant mental image. It flows very well too. I wish I did understand it, so I could review better. Ah well. Your language use is excellent also, especially towards the end. I don't know if the word '**' was absolutely necessary, but it did give it a much more biting feel. I like it. |
 My Lets Bug Sweets Pen Name 2006-05-18 . chapter 1Hahahahaha. If you click on that name it has nothing in it for it is " "lol. anyways, you know I've read all of your shtuff. tis interesting to say the least. but yar, you'll never find my real name on here. indeed, i became a bastard and now my stuff is on here . BUT I"LL NEVER TELL YOU WHERE! muahahaha.

 Formerly 2006-05-15 . chapter 1Shut it, **. |
 Mortifer Amor Phasmus 2006-05-15 . chapter 1Interesting. i think I would have liked it more if I knew more about fashion, and what haute couture is. But as an outsider it was very good! |
 crazy dog events 2006-05-14 . chapter 1I AM the again-reviewer,because, yes, the last eight lines were marv, and the first four lines inspirational.
I do have to ** about the ending, because it wasn't an ending. It's kind of like that stop sign at which drivers really want to curse. Except, stop signs aren't cool, and this really was.
Hey, you already know what I think, but redundancy has a place in my heart. |
