![]() ![]() ![]() Well written, with some great imagery. |
![]() ![]() ![]() This is so sad, yet I imagine it being read in such a happy tone... Amazing. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Thought-provoking piece of poetry. I particularly liked how you captured the deep sadness and yet disconnect of the character... Very interesting. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Six ellipses scattered throughout the poem, a total of eighteen baseline dots. Perhaps analogous to the number of tiny tablets ingested? You were right to scrap the original version. What would have made for a tedious story does work better in this format, as the sensation of creeping medicinal intoxication is best shown in a thin column of text (immediately vertical orientation calls attention to up-down, high-low, etc.) than block paragraphs (horizontal, fat, static). In short, the poem succeeds in its execution, communicating well the actions and psychology of an overdose. |
![]() ![]() ![]() This was deep and beautiful. Nicely written and quite sad. I absolutely loved it. |
