Review of More Secrets  
Review by WirelessW
Rated: E | (2.5)
This is clearly a personal piece, and while it may be a little unwelcome I'm going to focus on one specific area: The piece on a technical level. The first paragraph is such a huge, solid chunk of text that it becomes difficult to follow after a certain point. Combine that with some grammar issues (particularly with apostrophes) and the potential impact of the piece is impaired.

If this was just a means of venting, then by all means vent away. But if you intended it for other readers, then it may have been better to make it easier to read.

Is this a poem, or is it a list of words? Two lists, I suppose. I could get the same stuff from a thesaurus.

Also: I understand that the split between adjectives and verbs is part of the form, but it really makes the whole thing clunkier than it needs to be.

Review of The Greedy King  
Review by WirelessW
Rated: E | (4.0)
There is a bit of a whimsical quality to this; it's really quite Roald Dahl, and I appreciate that a good deal. The moral of the tale is also a good one.

That being said, the scansion/rhythm of the piece did fall apart somewhat at times. Also, free/greedy is quite forced, as rhymes go.
