Review of Growth  
Review by bob county
Rated: E | (4.5)
Free Verse?
I'm reminded of a nature program about sea turtles.
The sea turtles swim across the world to lay their eggs.
Some of the eggs are eaten by seagulls.
When the turtles hatch some are eaten as they crawl to the sea.
Many other hatchlings are eaten swimming.
Is the work of a kind benevolent creator?
Well, it's natural selection.

The human mind seeks justice and love in a cruel world.
Why? I believe this is the tome of your lyric.
Maybe, we just over think our situation.

Fun read!

Sweet memories..
I'm impressed with your writing style.
The syntax was seamless and carries
the reader gently through your romance.

I'm very choppy with my prose.
When my girlfriend was 19, I took nude photos of her
on the backyard lawn. I turned the spinning sprinkler on.
I begged my girlfriend to let me send the photos to Playboy.
But, she wouldn't allow it.
She's a nurse now.. I think she could have been
a pinup..
Your story has more style, but mine has more jazz.

Any who, you've written a beautiful retrospective.

Review of Cinderella Red  
Review by bob county
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
Both my sisters weren't fans of Cinderella.
Perhaps, they dislike the impossible beauty.
Or maybe, they disliked Prince Charming.
The vibe I get from your poem is not positive.
I dated a lady with a barrel chest.
She took after her father's powerful upper body.
She was not bitter about Cinderella's impossible beauty.
She is a very positive nudist.

This poem seemed hateful of Cinderella stories.
Maybe, I've misinterpreted ..

It is well constructed..

Keep writing!

This reads like a Satanic chant in a Black Mass.
I was raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts..
It is a diverse community of many cultures..
There are Witches and Jehovah Witnesses.
While I was a reluctant Catholic, I had an atheist Jewish girlfriend.
I was star struck by her copper skin and green eyes...
Her father, Gunther Wild, escaped NAZI Germany.
He was an infant and was smuggled out in a suitcase.+
"Religion is for sheep." Gunther said.
I'm intrigued by your poem.
Are you suggesting that non-believers are damned?
Judaism has the Sheol for the damned...
They remain in the grave and never wake up. .

Which religion is better?

Good luck with your journey Mr. Foster.

I like bubbles. Advertising is a big bubble.
Your thread leads the reader to a sudsy end.
At this point you can only chuckle...
I was hoping for a large bubble chase scene.
But, story moves quickly with a pop...

Keep Writing!

We are all inflated bubbles.

Review of Sacrifice  
Review by bob county
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
"The children shall not be punished for their father's sin"
wrote Duet 24:16..
But, that is what God did to the children of Adam.
God cursed Adam's seed with Original Sin.
And when God's Angels took the daughters of men to be wives
and giants walked the land, God drowned them in a great flood.
God saved Noah and his family, but Ham sinned against Noah
and the sin remained in the world...And Ham seed became Arabia.
And so God anointed Abraham to lead his people.
And God told Abraham to slaughter the women and children of Arabia.
Moses freed the Jews from Egyptian slavery and God sent them to Palestine..
where God commanded the tribes of Judah to slaughter the Palestinians.
Jesus was a peaceful prophet, who was crucified.....
He said his Father in Heaven wanted to make him a human sacrifice+,
because he loves you.<?><

You are a thought provoking writer.
The Force is strong with you.
Live long and prosper.

Review of Auld Lang Syne  
Review by bob county
Rated: 18+ | (4.0)
Interesting ellipses.
Is this a script?
I've heard some stories about wise guys
ending up in canned dog food.
But, this has an edgy quality...
The oddness thing about violence is the silence after.
It's like screaming monkeys and then there just quite ..
You could expand on this and introduce some satire.

Review of Technology  
Review by bob county
Rated: E | (4.0)
I was never I big fan of dictionaries.
If you don't know how to spell it,
how can you find the word in the dictionary.
Spell check is a big help on line.
When I was in high school we didn't have
calculators .. That was horribly slow.
There was no cable TV in my childhood.
The television was inside the record player.
There were 3 network stations and a few local
stations on UHC... The dials on the TV clicked.
I like Technology it's fun.

Review of I am not me.  
Review by bob county
Rated: E | (5.0)
I've known beautiful people, who had physical disabilities.
Erotica is not only physical. It is spiritual.
I had a passionate relationship with a young woman of 19 and
I was 14. She was pretty and I have never been handsome ..
I was born with a sunken chest, which required chest surgery.
That left a scar across my chest. Nevertheless, I have known
sexual love.

Know that you are mortal.
That your time is fleeting.
And celebrate your life and love.
Who can say when our time is over?
Is this a dream ?
Who is the dreamer?

I've noticed that all things have a top and a bottom.
There is light and darkness.
It is the way of things..

Good writing!

Review of Orion's Keep  
Review by bob county
Rated: E | (4.0)
Nice meter ..
I like the rhyme too.
But, I cringe at the greed mantra.
Gold is good, because it is a commodity.
It is traded for capital and products.
Sometimes, I think writers don't understand poverty.
Money pays the rent.

The Moon has gold. Many of the Moon rocks brought back
have gold in them...
That will most likely be the next gold rush of 2030.
Gold will bring us back to the Moon.

Great poem.

Review of Shake The Skin  
Review by bob county
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
A deeply emotional plea ..
But, can we love someone who doesn't return that love?
If someone kicks me down a flight of stairs,
should I assume they love me?
It's very difficult to know what the other is truely
looking for.
I have had responses that were poignant and still there
was doubt and regret...

Keep writing,

A lot of stuff is happening in Antarctica ..
There is volcanic activity and large chunk of ice broke off
which is heading for Australia ..
A Pyramid has been discovered. Thousands of years ago there was
a green Egyptian culture there.
Could this be Alien?

"a seal rockery." ?
You wrote. I've never heard of this.
Maggie had a slimy tongue in your story.
Is she human? Why is this detail your story?
A strange tale ending in violence ...

I'd like to see more detail in the narrative.

Is Maggie a seal?

Eugenics and the field of genetic engineering is fun!
Imagine real Angelic humans with miraculous powers.
Or, a dictatorship ruled by Super Humans(The Wrath of Khan).
I've often wondered how women feel about their
reproductive cycle. Do they feel they are a slave
to their bodies?
Scary fact about North Korea, they have human guinea pigs.
There are no human rights in North Korea.
They brag about breading citizens for excellence.
And who can stop them from cloning babies?

Fun topic!

Aliens, androids and God's phone number
sounds like a fun romp.
If I met an alien from outer space, I'd
ask them why they came to this dump.
If I had the privilege to meet an android,
I'd ask, "Does your hair grow?"
If I could call God on a God phone, well
we know what happened in your story.
"You're reached Bob's phone." should be,
"You've reached Bob's phone."
Any who, I like the premise, but the story
needs more character development.

The Philosopher Democritus said, "Politics is for the landowners."
Only property owners could vote in the early Colonial States of America.
And most of the founding fathers, including the writer of the constitution
of the Colonial American States, were slave owners.
The economy of America in 1776 was based largely on slavery.
The swamp around the Capital White House in Washington D.C. was filled
by African slaves. Their bones still lay under the foundation of the
White House.
Is it not ironic that most agricultural labor is undocumented?
And since they are undocumented Mexico will not take them back.
Will these Mexican slaves be used to build President Trump's wall?
Will they be kept on plantations or concentration camps?
Mexico refuses to repatriate undocumented immigrants..
They could be Columbian ..
There is always a need for slaves in a Democracy.

Imagine a world without boarders.
Could we live without the largest military ?
Could we live without fossil fuels?
How many animals are on the verge of or extinct?
Do we have enough fresh water?
There are 7 billion people on the Earth.
Are we at the tipping point in our generation?
Imagine a world without boarders.

Review of Writer's Block  
Review by bob county
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
That's awesome writers block.
"like flails." did you mean flaying?
That was a form of extreme interrogation.
This free verse is very vivid.
Do muse about the wipper willow?
There is only the now.
Do not fear the winds of the world's end...

Everything written on the internet travel through
ethos unto countless dimensions..

I believe humans are the only animals that cry.
My dad scolded me for crying.
"You must be strong." he said.
A bone stuck out of my arm.
I had fallen from a tree.
I felt I had disappointed dad.
But, he hugged me.
I like your bare simple verse.
There are days when I feel all is lost.
But, I will not cry.
Let us pray our President can.

Review of The Land Of Ons  
Review by bob county

There is a Moron tribe in Maine.
Along with the Huron and Iraquoi tribes,
the Moron tribe is closer to Canada ...
I have dealt with hiring issues on tribal
tattoos, which can be on the face ..
Exposed tattoos can be unexceptable in the
food industry. A blood test maybe required
to exclude hepatitis...
Nevertheless, the ending to this liliputing
muse was amusing.

Birth causes death.
But, what will you do in between?
I knew a girl, who had cancer.
She asked me to marry her.
We were both kids in Children's Hospital.
I did not have a life threatening decease.
But, we made our vows.
Well, I got through my chest surgery and
she had many more treatments..
She died. .. That is the life process.

Good writing!

Shape shifting can be found in all religions
and our DNA has all of the animal kingdom in it.
I like the idea of a school for young gods.
I've often wondered where God learned to be omnipotent.
Some scientist think the universe popped out of nothing.
That is too fantastic for me to believe... ..
But, that doesn't mean its impossible.

My dad told me that we live in the mind of God.
Does that means life is a dream?

You have some grammar mistakes~"Josh uestioned."
I like to read my stories aloud.
The inner voice is hypnotic.

To fight for a Heavenly cause..
no matter how far.
no matter how hopeless..

Why do we aspire?
Most animals are content.
Humans want more.
Strange little monkeys.

Your Enigma is intriguing ..
How do we know light?
We perceive it with our senses
and interpret.
