Oh WOW! You've just encapsulated every damn thought i ever had about how disenfranchised i felt with the people around me once. Consequently i now live with cats but hey... That was beautiful.

it's a winter scene. ("muted wonderland," I always refer to it.)

*insert shameless self-advertising* I'd really like your opinion.

I like the colloquialisms you use; they really add to the effect.

that was a really interesting poem :)

(the usual chorus of This is cool, this is so great, you have such talent, blah blah blah) i just wish i could tell you, how great youre stuff is without being trite. maybe in french--ah but im not kidding at all you should, i dunno, write a book, or some such idiocy

its pure staccat o

oh and hopkins is incredible.

Hmm. i like "the attitude rack". this poem's a little different than other poems called "mute". i believe i like this.

wow. I adore it. :) Keep up the good work while I go review your other stuff.

and again the beautiful anti-scoiety and pessimistic truths i know and love! I love the frankness that you write with- this poem is so awesome! "page 63 of "The Opinions You're Supposed to Have" " you are so good at hate- it's lovely!

Hey, I liked this poem alot. I find it
reflects how so many people think. The
whole "rebellion by the book" thing.

By the way, you wrote a review of my novel
but I couldn't reply to your email (since
you didn't leave one) so I wrote here. It
was originally supposed to be a movie, and
your the first person who pointed it out.
I was going to make a script instead, but
I wouldn't have been able to do so many
descriptions, so I made a novel that could
easily (i hope) be turned into a script.
Later (sorry this is so long)

This is incredible. The offbeat pacing and imagery... as ever, enticing, entrancing... Very gritty and close to our social home.

as ever:

*laughs* Now this is some original stuff. I like the ending line and "page 63..."

this is good. hopefully not true. okay, so it's true. no reason to be depressed. at least the sky is another shade of grey than yesterday. :)

true but depressing... well done... I really like some of your lines... like *straight off the attitude rack* right up to *see index for more* ... I really like those three lines... Nicely done! =)
