"painted like a dali painting" pick a painting and kill the other.
This is, otherwise, pimple - not a bad one though.
S4 had the most powerful imagery in the poem, I definitely enjoyed it. Very well done; every word adds something to the poem, there's no fluff anywhere.
I agree with zodiac's comments here.
olympic dogfighting?
I would lose the last line. It introduces another topic. Otherwise good.
quite an ambitious ditty - but I think too long?
Still, enjoyable enough!
a riddle-like quality.
The set up is out of proportion to the delivery, but the language is solid enough.
Something to think about if you ever do a rewrite.
that last line, man.
what can be done?
"really really glad"
is you makin' fun of poetry?? are you mocking me? HUH PRETTY-BOY - are you mockin ME??
balleys? I think you mean ballets.
The last line seems contradictory after setting up the theme of finding meaning and truth. I'd try to go back to who we listen to for the last line.
The (current) last line seems fine to me.
I do love your username. This poem kind of sucks though.
"Quim"
this has some logic errors, like how would I (cuz I know you are talking to me) know if your blood didn't suit my taste if it then goes un-tasted? Or something.
Plus it sounds like another suicide poem[e].
It is a simple metaphor for sport in general people!
This not about dogs, but the essence of sport.
Sports turns men into animals, for what? People will kill for the gold and no one really remembers who died for what.
Yeah, liked this.
