This is an adorable fantasy story. I love fantasies that take you to other worlds. My favorite is Narnia. This is almost that good. I would wish for more characters and that it was longer but I am greedy like that. I love Vincent and really worried about him
This is a reciprocal review. I spotted this particular piece in your portfolio and it called to me. I am bipolar too though mine is pretty well controlled by meds. I appreciate you sharing your struggle. I am more introverted and don't like to be the center of attention. Most of my childhood I was the one people told to smile more. I didn't start having manic episodes until my teens. Sharing what you have been through is important for everyone.
THis is a real enemy to lover story. I could almost see it, almost, But I am afraid that the kkk is blinded to beauty by their hatred. I just don't see any of them hearing something so beautiful that they would drop the clan and sweep anyone off their feet. It is a beautiful idea though.
I found myself sympathizing with this poem more than I wanted to. Mortality is not a pretty subject, but this poem attacks it with beauty and dignity. I don't think I could handle this subject with the respect and dignity that you have. I am still trying to pretend the peak is ahead of me.
Cool story. I love the character. I love the story. Awesome. The story carrys through on a great premise. It turned my expectations on its head. Serial charity rather than serial killing... I should have said spoilers. You have a really good chance of winning a contest
Pretty poem. I like the plant you chose. I wasn't as serious in my choice. My poem was more political. Your poem made me want to go out back and plant the garden I have been planning for the last eight years. I like sunflowers but my favorite plant is lilacs. I always used to give my mom a bouquet of lilacs for mother's day.
I am not sure how I like this poem. It doesn't have the lyrical metaphorical flow that I feel a lot of poems have. It isn't stiff per se I just don't feel it. Maybe it would be easier to feel if the image it talks about were included so that you can see the majesty of it.
Pretty intense. With a lot of existential questions. I wish I had answers for you, but I don't. I think that you are intelligent and insightful and I look forward to reading more of your writing. I do question whether to label this poetry or prose. Most likely poetic prose.
I went with the same theme for my poem but you did it much better. I really like yours. I titled mine Arrgh but Whew is a better title too. It looks like you followed the prompt I like that you used twee it is an unusual word that doesn't get used nearly enough.
That is terrifying. It is the scariest dystopia stor I have ever read. Worse than any zombie apocalypse story or nuclear holocaust. I hope we never come to this but I can see it on the horizon. The story reads like a page of a newspaper from twenty years in the future.
Interesting hook. It leaves so much open. It could be horror, zombies and monsters. It could be Science fiction, androids and aliens. It could be a murder gone sideways. I would love to see where you could go with this hook. it would be an interesting story no matter where you went with it.
Difficult but doable puzzle. I loved all the words you selected. I think they were a good mix of long and short ones and they all applied to the subject matter of the word search. I found two bonus words, blend and eat. Eat didn't so much go with the theme but I think blend would work.
So absolutely adorable. It captures the antics of a mischievous raccoon in a perfect child-like way. It tells a cute story and I don't think there is a thing I would change. The emojis are wonderful accents to the subject of the poem and definitely fit the prompt.
Lovely poem. it works on so many levels each of the haiku could stand alone but together they are way more than the sum of their parts. I think it was an inspired use of the prompt words. The other words were excellent choices to add to the flow of the poem.
I think this is really cute. I think my leprechaun had a little brew too. The first line seems long but it works really well. The rhymes were solid for me and so was the little story of Paddy. This poem fits the prompt well and is funny. Well done attempt.
interesting story poem. I enjoyed it a lot more than some of the things I have read or even written this week. I like the character of the mirror man as presented and the idea that the poet found him hard to comprehend. I wonder if the mirror man was a part of him he didn't understand.
It follows the form as I understand it. I think the subject is timely. You might want to include a dropnote with the prompt in it so people can see why you wrote it this way. It will remind you later why you wrote it as well. I find if I don't do drop notes like that I get confused later when someone does a random read and review years later.
The rhymes look good but I am not sure you got the repeated line in the last stanza from the right line above. You might double check. Don't mind me I had a rough time with this one and was really uninspired yours was positively inspiring good show and better poem.
Fit the prompt quite well. I would suggest embedding the prompt in a dropnote though just for the looks of it, it is what I do. Otherwise, my entries could get messy with long and involved prompts. The poem really was a positive one and seemed to have real thought put into its construction.
This is quite twisted. I liked the turn on expectations it has. Really nice making the entomologist sound like a serial killer, I mean they kind of are. This describes what they do in such a way that it seems much more brutal than you would usually think.
THis is scary. That his nightmares could be that bad in a month he needed more than a dreamcatcher it almost sounds like he needed medication, there are medications that can suppress dreams and that can reduce nightmares. If not therapy would be an option. In any case i would hate to think a dreamcatcher could split and spill out nightmares all at once.
This is an uplifting piece that reminds me that sometimes fake it till you make it can really work in some circumstances. I have found for much of my life people have told me to smile. It can be really hard, but since I found my true love smiling happens spontaneously and I don't know if I smile because I feel good or I feel good because I smiled.
I love the way this is told, it reminds me of "Stand by me" I think is the name of the movie. It was the one where the friends found a dead body. It seems that every group of friends like this ultimately has that one adventure that takes them from a child to an adult in the span of a day.
I found this poem kind of sad. The homeless woman spends all day collecting crumbs and pieces of sandwiches from people's discarded lunches and then she feeds the pigeons with them. The pigeons don't show any sign of gratitude aside from meeting her there again the next day.
Ooooh sooo creepy. This is a twisted story. I can see my nephew doing this to his parents if they tried to take his youtube away. Yeah, maybe the parents shouldn't have been so strict. Or maybe they shouldn't have given him a set of demon-possessed construction toys
