Lost in A World of Pain 2008-11-05 ch 48,	Hey there, so sorry for taking so long to review anything. Life, as you know, is hectic. At any rate, you've put together a good number of short pieces here. I really like this one because of the simple ideals that are stated. The truth is that while they may appear simple, in fact they are far more complicated than meets the eye. They're something that many should aspire to reach for and hope for. I really like this and again apologise for the lack of reviews. Currently I'm writing finals, so I was procrastinating and reading some good writing. Have a great day. Take Care Lost in A World of Pain
a silenced revolution 2008-10-28 ch 48,	i adore the way you formatted this...
a silenced revolution 2008-10-28 ch 44,	ouch.
a silenced revolution 2008-10-28 ch 43,	:( Shakespeare has NO right to judge your emo crap.
a silenced revolution 2008-10-28 ch 42,	those last two lines speak volumes to me, unfortunately.
Ashelin 2008-10-01 ch 41,	I love that first stanza. Your repetition was FANTASTIC and the last line totally completed your sentiments. And I liked the last stanza too, especially the first line. Though I DO like the last line, there is something about it that doesn't seem quite right. I dunno. But good job! And excellent job updating! You're almost over the hill! :]
Ashelin 2008-10-01 ch 40,	gasp! You updated! Woah! Anywho, this is an interesting contrast to the original rhyme. But I wasn't too hot on what you put in for "sugar and spice" because 1. It seemed repetative and 2. both of those things didn't really seem bitter enough for me to make a point. But that's just my humble opinion. What do I know anyway? Welcome back to the world of fictionpress [though I don't think I'm allowed to say that. the last time I updated was too long ago.]
IdeasInTheAir 2008-07-08 ch 39,	This is so amazing, I love it. My favourite is the Alphabet Soup one, because it reminded me that when I was little and I used to bring Alphaghetti to school for lunch, I'd eat the letters and say I was eating whoever had a name that started with that letter. But that was just silliness, this is really cool, the messages in it. The whole thing is pretty sweet, I can't wait to read more of them! Smiles, Danielle=)
Ashelin 2008-07-07 ch 35,	This reminds me of the scary ways that truth may become engulfed by the false beauty of ideology. Or at least hope. But not in a good way, but a disturbing one. Good job.
Ashelin 2008-07-07 ch 37,	Interesting. A bit forlorn. Though I think everyone feels like this from time to time. Very short, but good. Great job.
Ashelin 2008-07-07 ch 38,	Interesting. Most people find rain melancholy, though I find it sort of refreshing. I love the rain. I live in a place where rain rarely ceases. I liked the shortness and honesty in this, and the sort of veil of mystery and sort of unknowing in it. Great job.
Ashelin 2008-07-07 ch 39,	This poem reminds me of magic 8 balls. You know the ones, you shake them and ask them a question and they decide your fate for better or for worse. No, it's not much to relate this to at all, just what immediately came to mind. I how you clouded the child-world with the adult one. Or perhaps more light-heartedness versus the darker depths of the human soul. Yeah, I'm going a bit overboard. But I did like your poem. Good job.
Durak 2008-06-21 ch 28,	Secret #72 made me actually "lol". So, I'm reading these through backwards, but I'm going to stop here and shower you with a little bit of praise. I love that the number of secrets goes into the five hundreds; I think it's great you picked (seemingly?) random numbers for each (except 1, of course); and I like how... elegantly simple and honest it is. It reminds me that Eliot was wrong: poetry doesn't, actually, need to be difficult. I think I'm going to add you to my favorites.
Ashelin 2008-06-09 ch 32,	How very true. I feel like this a lot of the time. What control do I have? But we lie to ourselves so much. It's a little more than ridiculous. Great job, yet again.
Ashelin 2008-06-09 ch 31,	This is really intense, and it's almost overwhelming for this collection. But I think it's right. The imagery was horrific, but you said it so beautifully. And the worse thing is to know people like this, who are so fighting these demons inside of themselves that they have created, or the world has created for them. It's just so disturbing. shivers Wonderful job.
