Hi. I'm a 19 year old college student. I'm also a poet. My poems are starting to get quite numerous, and some of them seem kind of good, so I thought I'd find a place to get some of them critiqued. I would really like to get some serious critiques either to humble me or uplift me...

As for my major in college, I haven't decided yet, but it's always been between History and English/Literature, except for a short stint in Anthropology I had. I'm not sure what else needs to be said here... so just let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks.
