Daywalker (Free verse) by Blade

He Stalks Hunting through every Darkened street, Passing by each flickering lamppost. Hastening to find his soul. The blood lust rises Searing blood red anger, deep behind his eyes.

I've just read them, and I'm on the fence as regards my view. I see the point you and others have that people should accept the fact that if they're going to put up their work for ranking, they should accept all reviews, good or bad. However, I also see some sense in what Maria and co. are saying, and I feel that it's pointless just to slate something without giving some constructive criticism. In other words, saying something is crap is fine, just say why, and give a few pointers on how to do better next time. Regardless of ability, we're all here to improve, and it would be much better if we were supportive of fellow poets, and helped them to progress, rather than slamming them for the sake of it (although I must admit these skirmishes make for excellent reading!). Ok, rant over!
