very foreboding and unnerving. the end was particularly effective, although i'm not too sure about the footnotes. nevertheless i enjoyed this.-The Lady Elaine

Creepy poem. I'm still amazed at your vocabulary list. Wow. Impressive.

Perhaps I need to see the picture to find this one as pretty as your others. It's still years ahead of my skill, but it seems (somehow) to me as slightly more forced than your others. Negh.

nice! i really like this story :D and thanks for the nice review!

Creepy...yet exotic in its own terms.

I took your advice and looked up the painting, and it matched the poem perfectly! You did a wonderful job writing about it. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but you got the same image across in less- excellent job.

Oh I like. Your work is always so wonderful. I didn't remember the painting at first but now I do, I don't like it much but that's the painting the poem i like more. It's very interesting and seems to tranfer the feeling and fear.

Wow, breath taking imagery~~ i especially liked the ending, very impactful~~ Good work!

keep writing!

Elegant and lovely. A brilliant expression of waiting with every word set so perfectly in place.

a wonderful interpretation of a wonderful painting

interesting, i looked up that painting, kind of eerie, but intruiging.

its a good poem, just very, different, and nice to read after a while.

your vocabulary is astounding. variety, good, very good.

Beautifully written, and as cryptic as the work of art.
