Thanks for asking me to review this work. I enjoyed reading it and hope you find this feedback useful.
Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was a fascinating bit of writing... an almost fantasy/Dr Seuss-esque type of work. I enjoyed the mischievous curious child you wrote about. He has to take the dare and in the end pays for it.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
The first person you used was ingenious.. this made it personal to the audience reading it, too. I liked how the mother chose the chair her son became because it suited her and was 'comfy'. But the boy/chair was right, he should not have done what he had done. I also enjoyed the rhyming, it made the piece "sing-song" and I liked how you separated the sections for each part of the tale.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
I was really affected by this work. I, myself, have had a life of a few close friends, not even 2 or 3 most times. I do value them and I am pleased you wrote how I feel so well.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I like the sound of your odd friends, because that is how I am and my friends are too. I like how you described your friendships and how they were with you when you needed them.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was an interesting read. I was drawn to keep reading until the end. And, I gotta admit it, the end was nothing like I thought it would be.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
The character sounds confused, and I am also confused. I am not sure what was meant in this story, especially the end the way it was.
I liked the descriptions of the iron bat dragging and hitting the lightbulbs.
"Just as the light was about to reveal who he was, the bat swung up and broke the light along the ceiling..."
That was a bit scary to read. The whole thing was a bit scary to read, actually. That is why when she saw him and, what .. realized he was her long lost love. It was even more confusing.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
Oh My God! Forfend those Do-it-yourselfers who wreck things out of proportion to what it seems like it should be! I found it very amusing when Jay spoke:
'Jay jumped up excitedly, "it works!!!".'
A total lack of reality sitting there! LOL
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I can imagine that situation, watch all the lights shut off down the street!!!

I found this to be a factual statement of what Fall is.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
Using colors to highlight your words is nice, but there needs to be more emotion and excitement about what you are writing.

Also, think about you want the reader to FEEL... poetry is about feelings, not encyclopaedic statements.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
It is an interesting expression and one that is entirely too accurate in my opinion. That is why I don't make them anymore. :)
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I like how that expression starts out with a grand entrance with a dragon head and spread wings. The end being a dejected tail where nothing was accomplished.

I found your poem on Read & Review. I enjoyed reading it and hope you find this feedback useful.
Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was a good description of impatience and coveting that which we don't have. It IS a shame that we Humans are unable, often, to observe something wonderful and make no changes to it, trying to 'perfect' it.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I liked the rhyming, it didn't seem forced.
I also liked the lines:
"jealously, we must acquire
that which holds a desired trait."
It is too true that what we haven't is rarely good enough, that we seek more and more.. more wealth, more attention, etc.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was a poem expressing the sorrow at the loss of so many people and our innocence as well. It WAS a tragedy.. and that tragedy struck more than a simple building, it struck us in the deepest part of our hearts and souls as a country.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
"to remind us of our great loss
and a rebirth of brotherhood."
A reminder that we need to remember those who were lost, and come back stronger and more vigilant against those who would try to tear us down.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was a powerful image of abuse and cruelty from a strong person hurting weaker people. The abuser as a monster is totally accurate. I have been there myself in a similar situation.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
"He says, 'sorry, I love you'
won't set bones, make bruises disappear"
This is a strong image to grasp, hearing lies and seeing the truth.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
Very nice image.. nice concept, I like it, I like it a lot.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I like the image of imprinting ourself into our souls.. the essence of us, distilled into an amorphous entity (i.e.. our souls). I also like the image of our moment memories measuring us, bring us to a finite physical end.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
I can feel the anxiety and the quest for escapism. I also have felt those ways and used sleep as my step out of reality and life.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
This perfectly summarizes the whole poem for me and exactly how I felt many times over.
"My dreams only tell stories of escape
An escape that is just out of reach
when I awake."
Grammar
No errors noted.
Suggestions:
On the last line of the second stanzas, you need to put a space in between:
"an escape that is just out of reach" and "when I wake" because you want consistency through out the work.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This really was a well-conceived and written work. It brings in all aspects of creation into cohesive and viable meld of ideas.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
I love how you rhymed and it wasn't at all rushed or forced. It flowed. I loved this poem, I really enjoyed it.
"A fusion of cells, blood, sweat and tears.
A miracle of life, that's yours and ours."
Very nice imagery written here.
I also liked how you addressed the issue indirectly of "creation vs. evolution" with:
"No one knows how we came to be.
How humans form and live to be free."
This is a view that everyone can accept.

You wrote convincingly of a desire to text but did the right thing and did your math worksheet. Welcome to Writing.com.

I like how you use the texting AS the poem. And then in the end, works on the school work. Now that bespeaks self-control, and that's really cool.

I found your poem on Read & Review. I enjoyed reading it and hope you find this feedback useful.
Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This poem seems to be a lament for the passing of an age of humanity and a curiously cautious look for the future.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
The ideas are well-presented, but I am not sure what era we are talking about... the computer and electronics age, perhaps?
I found your prose on Read & Review. I enjoyed reading it and hope you find this feedback useful.
Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was clearly a man who needs help.. he is plotting the fall of a colleague and childhood companion and using untraceable ways to do it, but it keeps backfiring on him.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
This was a very venomous man who cares little for how he hurts other people, in fact he enjoys it. I felt anger at him, but cheered on Harvey for healing his relationship with his parents.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
This was a curious read... a reluctant employee that does care about the Boss. Then he gets the business and is so shocked he faints.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
The fact that Mr. Franks was going to retire and give it to his employee speaks well for the employee as a worker. The fact that George fainted made it clear that he wasn't in any way aiming for the job and that speaks well for him.

Overall Impression/Emotional Impact:
I liked your fervor supporting your feelings about this country. You presented a good argument for a country like ours. I'm not going to make this into a political discussion, but I did enjoy the premise that working together our people can be better.
Artistic Voice and Imagery:
This appears to support the way we, in this country, help small groups of people to unite into an amalgam that all are a part of.
