Love and whiplash, somehow they do appear to have a lot in common as I think about the painful composition of this poem. Each word here seems filled with longing for the light only love can bring. A hard and edgy ode to our hearts desire. Where are they... the ones who are supposed to care? Is it all just a selfish journey?

Well done.

Ah, a wonderful, sweet tale for a hard world without happy endings. I am always glad to read a story of positive inspiration that stands the test of time. Happy children, their artwork and dreams all conjured by a talented future mother. It cannot be so long ago, can it?

I spent many years sailing the seas and I am always enchanted by a well told story of the ocean's song. Standing on the bow of your ship with all the emptiness of wind and wave before you, or else upon the sand where water and land contend for their of measure of space. Thanks for the memories and visions of days to come.

Review of Marmalade Hill

A poem within a mystery dancing the ancient waltz of life. Who is that man on the hill? I would like to know. Verse, rhyme, and composition its all good, I would not change a thing. The spirit of mysticism clings to the air within the poem and got my attention immediately. I was fascinated by the liminal quality of your words. Well done.

Having never seen the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's this piece caught my attention. Nor have I reviewed a movie synopsis/review before but your enthusiasm caught be up in the first few lines. You did a wonderful job describing the film, its convoluted plot, and its talented cast. Now I will have to see the movie as soon as I can.

Very well done, a most excellent sonnet indeed. You had me from the first and held me throughout, my favorite stanza is the last. I think you managed to capture the thrill of life very well and in so few words, impressive indeed. I enjoyed the hopeful tone throughout.

Review of No Kidding

Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
An excellent piece of science fiction, the whole thing just worked for me. The story got my interest almost immediately and held it right to the end. The ending is kind of twisted, I am not sure if I am angry at the protagonist for having the desire to abandon his family or sad that he didn't get his chance to travel the multi-verse.

I doubt you are missing anything, this a very through study of the keyboard action keys for Super Mario Brothers. For aficionados of the game this fact sheet will surely come in very handy and would be a great service to new players. Bravo for you enthusiasm and well done.

Review of Cleansing  
Review by Jonn
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
The first line caught my attention. Walking "long this dirty path" seems to me to have a bigger meaning than it's few words imply, some commentary on the rudeness of life's experiences. I am left wondering what, "twenty years of hell," feels like and why the rain should make a difference. Perhaps the "rain" is a metaphor for something else-- but what?

I liked it, well done.

Review of Freedom! Freedom?

Rated: E | (5.0)
What price freedom? An age old question and one whose answer has never been calculated. This story explores from a birds-eye view the riddle of life. Do we choose to lead safe but dull lives or do we take the risk and fly out the window to the great unknown where greater danger and freedom awaits.

Very spooky indeed, I was drawn in by your description of this recurring dream. I have had recurring night terrors complete with awakening in a cold sweat and they leave a mark. I found the geographical connection very alarming and the picture of the witch a nicely frightening ending. Well written.

A very good poem and a great story with a terrific surprise ending. What would any of us do with such a gift aa this... the power to see the future even if for only one day. I'm sure it would be a wretched existence knowing even a single day in advance.

Review of Your Name

A chilling bit of poetry. It is frightening to wander in the head of someone whose mind is gone. I kept wondering who belonged to the voice being looked for; someone alive or someone dead. The last stanza is my favorite, it pulls all the other elements of the poem together and leaves the reader with that icy cold feeling.

Everyone deserve to have a relationship such as the one described. An ode to the best of friends and how they outlast the long march of years, all wrapped up in a tightly written bit of poetry. A nice rhyming scheme leads to a pleasant reading experience.

Very good.

I liked it! I like tiny poems in general but most are soulful storm tossed things. Tis one caught me by surprise, it is very unexpectedly funny. I have given very little thought to "jello powder" in general but here it is quite amusing, I do not know why; perhaps it is because I am unsure of the results of sleeping with it.

This work seems to belong at the beginning of a larger work, a short story or even a novel. It would be a great start for such an endeavor, already this piece leaves me wanting more.

I would put this line first:

"He knew that today his young bride Jolecia is due to be deflowered by the wretched King Marnekin."

It would immediately catapult the reader into the action.

A strong heartfelt poem concerning our timeless struggle with the place where compromise fits into a good life. Is it enough to get by in life; were we meant to run or walk?

You had my interest from first to last. I thought the last two lines were a perfect ending. Are we not made of wax? A good question.

I liked your surprise ending, it pulled the whole piece together. I can envision a traveler somehow attracted to all the activity of an airport yet so bored they know how long they have been waiting to the second. It seems to me a commentary on the crowded world of the 21st century where boredom and curiosity merge.

I can feel the pain, a terrible awful pain that cannot be escaped. This a hard piece to read but I believe it is important to care for our fellows and try to understand their plight. I cannot imagine what can be done to help overcome such a burden. But you are right, we are never alone, I find some hope in this for all of our woes.

Well, this piece certainly made me stop and think. As a writer, I pray we do not really sound as this piece implies. When it comes to the verbose I prefer to leave this specialty to the lawyers who invented it. After all, they get paid well for their irritating misuse of the English language.

To which I replied, "Why? Because in my world, fish fall up...

Very well done, you had me from the first line. I am left with a feeling of profound loss and helplessness.

It is a complicated piece of poetry and I found myself rereading it a few time to understand what I was hearing. But I like works that require some extra thought to dig down to the roots.

I do hope your characters find each other again. I believe in miracles and better days.

Well done! This is an excellent piece of writing. I was very impressed with your professional wordcraft and riveting plot development. You had my interest from the first paragraph, I was compelled to keep reading to see where this terrorist plot was going. I particularly liked the opening with Abdul sitting in the woods complaining about American mosquitos.

I do not think there is enough here for an audition interview. The emotional range of the character is desperately needed. The motivation of the character would also be very helpful. Whether you are auditioning a fictional person or a live one more information is always better than less. After-all, we all have our part to play.

A good start, keep at it. Best of luck with your work.

Ah, a wonderful poem with such a sense of sincerity I wonder if the author has had a taste of such helplessness as this. The simple verse and rhyme seem to suit this work just fine and the whole is an easy and pleasant read. It reminds me of despair and hopelessness I have seen up close, I am haunted still. It is a shame that there are not enough Sarah's to go around.

Well, it seems you have all the pieces you need to write a tale of anything and almost everything. It is clear that you have lovingly created a detailed setting for your characters to ride through on their great adventures. Of course, now begins the hard work of character and plot developement, your world deserves a wonderful tale.

Keep writing and good luck with your work.
