THis poem has a definitely positive message. It encourages people not to think they must drastically change their circumstances when a better effort would be put to changing their attitude. That change of attitude can lead to better circumstances than grousing about how bad things are and wanting to make the outer world conform to self.

Review of The Hunger Games

This is a lovely and direct summary of a dystopian trilogy. I like the thoroughness managed in relatively few words. It covers most of the important points for me. Too much more information might spoil the series for readers who are looking at this piece and trying to decide whether to read it or not.

That is one awful secret Santa! Incredibly creative, psychotic, murderous secret Santa but that can happen in the right office environment. With a toxic boss, sexually harassing fellow workers, and that guy that thinks it is hilarious to pull pranks like tacks on people's chairs, I can totally see a secret Santa like this coming out.

Review of The Lovely Bay

not quite sure if the children belonged to both of the people or if he broke his word and found another love. I would like to believe he was faithful and those children were both of theirs. It is a structurally impressive poem but the story of it could be a touch clearer.

Ah and ode to a microwave. I once wrote an epitaph for a pen once, with the pen, that was dying, I think I even gave it a respectful burial. So it isn't entirely foreign to me to be sentimental over a technically inanimate object. People don't put enough stock into how loyal some "objects" can be.

Let me say this is an interesting poem, alien abduction to a rhyme. I wonder if they would really land in the middle of a ball field in a city park though. Unless they have that alien flashy thing built into one of the skyscrapers or monuments in the city someone other than the abductee would have to have seen their arrival.

Review of love or lust?

Rated: E | (5.0)
Very short poem. Very limited exploration of a very wide subject. It leaves most of the work to the reader by asking more questions than it answers. yet at the same time it manages to answer the questions by simply asking them. My only real criticism is that it should end with a question mark not a period.

Interesting start to something. I think this could really go somewhere cool. Stick with it I believe this is worth your time. The characters appear pretty strong and I think you have set up for some interesting plot lines. I'm not sure which is the dominant one but I feel the two men waiting outside could be very cool.

Review of Big Puzzle

Most of my objections to this piece come from formatting issues. While putting two returns between paragraphs makes for better readability, paragraphs do not begin or end in the middle of sentences. Another thing is that several sentences run on for far too long. With the awkward formatting it is easy to get lost before you get to the end of a sentence.

Review of Easter Holidays

Interesting take on the Easter holiday. Perhaps though a direct reference to the sources behind this piece in a drop note or footnote would help clarify the person's being referred to. I think I know who you are talking about, but a little explicit statement would be welcome.

That is so how it goes with family heirlooms. they always have that quarter-inch too much in width height and or depth. The trick isn't disassembling the furniture which would quite honestly risk damaging it. no the key is to disassemble the door, remove it from the wall if necessary. Doors are pretty simple to replace and they usually aren't priceless.

Review of My Ex-Dog Blue

I believe the word you are looking for is fetch. You throw something and the dog fetches it for you. The word fetch includes the complete action of chasing after, retrieving and returning the object to the person who threw it. The word bring leaves out most of that meaning. Otherwise lovely story/poem.

The use of the circus metaphor made this a hard read. I rather enjoyed the underlying story but the form it takes is stilted, awkward, and surprisingly insincere when it comes to the characters. Not naming names also made sympathy difficult. I don't have a who to pin it to.

THat was an extremely cheesy poem. It did rhyme. Whey worse than poems I have read on other subjects though. I think I have read better curdish poems. Though on a second read this poem is starting to melt my heart and give me an ooey-gooey feeling. No it still grates on my nerves.

You had to have written this just for me! I love it? It is twisted and hilarious and one of the main characters is a sock! Thank you for contributing this to the world! We all need more of this. The invasion of the alien sox... socks! Oooh what if they change their cloaking technology because of this what would be their next item? Shoes? No! I know! Car keys!

THis is a very descriptive piece. A lot of showing not telling in my opinion. I can see the whole scene vividly I love that the wife is waiting for him for a little desert. I feel for the one who goes home to a cat. I hope that the kettle doesn't start the house on fire.

I love your twisted sense of humor. This is really good. I like that you feature sox... I mean socks. I might have a thing for them too, but that isn't important to this review, unless it is? The blessings are all wonderfully positive and totally twisted in their own way. Write a lot more like this please! and send me the links!

OMG! Hillarious! I love it! Budd YY Zer is one of my favorites. I just love that trio of frogs, were they the actual band? Or were they just covering the tune? Your poetry is really good but I looooove this story! Definitely reading another one! You are a really good writer, stick with it!

Cool poem. I like that you called it a big orange squash rather than using pumpkin. It seemed to be just that little extra touch that this poem needed. I didn't find this prompt inspiring but clearly, you did. You make my Pandora response to the other prompt totally unoriginal. Congratulations on your win.

It is not what i saw in the prompt, I think yours is a hundred times more creative than mine and I loved your use of Madrugada. I don't go out of my way to use exceptionally stand on their own descriptive words, but I should. Congratulations on your win.

This is a cute tribute to becoming a grandparent and the love one feels for their grandchildren, by blood or not. I would offer congratulations on such wonderful news on having lovely additions to the family. I hope you get to spend a lot of time with your grandchildren. I know they will grow to appreciate every minute they get with you.

I am not accustomed to reading scripts so I cannot give you any advice on the format of this piece. But I enjoyed what I read, with the exception that it doesn't seem finished. none of the questions I have were answered, like why didn't he have his pants on when he died? and how did he know he was dying to take of his pants. and is that the only point of this story?
