| Niki Lemonade 2007-07-09 ch 5, | abuseAll of these poems are so lyrical and slow paced, they kind of took my by surprise. I'll have to reread them later, they're not making too much sense to me right now. If I were more awake, they would...I hope! I'll review again and tell you if they made any more sense the second time around |
| CerriC 2007-07-06 ch 5, | abuseA poem about dying? I really like this one, Archie. I'm planning on getting a prologue up soon... >.> |
| darknessblooms 2007-03-27 ch 4, | abuseHm...I'm not sure what I make of this. For some reason, the only thing that comes into mind right now is a couple who love each other very much but keep suffering loss after loss of their children until finally they are able to conceive a healthy boy. They have been through much grief and anger but in the end, "have never parted hearts." I see all their hands intertwined. I like it...different and makes one think. There's a very nice flow to it too, and almost a prophetic tone. Well done. And thanks, as always, for your reviews. I love getting them. I especially liked hearing your interpretations, since it was so different from my original experience, which were three separate phone calls on a cell. I liked yours better though, much more creative. |
| CerriC 2007-03-25 ch 4, | abuseWow, um... This is an odd one, Arch. o.o;; |
| no.peace.los.angeles 2007-02-26 ch 1, | abuseThe words you've used to describe this cat jumping into the air were simply astounding - "weaving, threading, stitching." True craftsmanship, I tell you. Wonderful. Keep writing! :) |
| darknessblooms 2006-12-04 ch 3, | abuseI can relate to the first two verses. The line: "They are sweet, and promising wishes" seems a little awkward because I think I expected it to read more like "They are sweet, and promise wishes" or "They are sweet, and promising." But maybe I am reading it wrong. I'm not sure I entirely get the last part but I like it, it fits somehow. It seems happy but also sad in a way, because I get the feeling that the girl is gone with the baby bird as well, up into the heavens. |
| darknessblooms 2006-12-04 ch 2, | abuseI really like this one for so many reasons. I like the line: "as you lift your arm--block the dark--" - I do that too sometimes or close my eyes, thinking that one darkness is better than another. Perhaps it is or maybe it's all the same. I like the simple "Over," as if these different scenes are moving on the pages of a book. The imagery, like the fan blades whirring down, is great like always. And the repetition of "and the scars are opening" is wonderful, especially in the last two lines, which are heartbreaking to me. |
| darknessblooms 2006-12-04 ch 1, | abuseI just wanted to say first off, thanks for being such a faithful reader and so encouraging. It means a lot. :) And I mean to update but never find the time to, especially the time to go back and edit my poems before posting them. Maybe that'll happen over winter break when I get away from campus. (Hopefully!) I love the metaphor of threading and stitching applied to how the cat moves...it creates such wonderful imagery. There's such a dreamlike quality to this...I see it all happening in slow motion. Beautiful. |
