lmp on The King Of Loserville by mindsigns 6 Mar 2006, 9:14 AM
not sure how to vote yet (still cogitating), but aptly titled.

Very odd.

Figure out a way to kill three quarters of the "I"s and this'll get a lot better.

pleasent to read.
Ranger on The Bait by Dhanesh M Kumar 6 Mar 2006, 11:04 AM
Personally I'd replace 'smooch' with something else, and 'The holder often/enthralls with proud/while...' doesn't make sense - perhaps 'enthralled with pride', or something like that. Other than that, not bad.
ecargo on The Final Night by xXxDemonicAngelxXx 6 Mar 2006, 9:49 AM
Would make a decent lyric.
Caducus on A HANGMAN'S MOANING by Dhanesh M Kumar 6 Mar 2006, 4:02 AM
Intersting concept and not badly penned.
Guess you don't need to complain about the lack of comments anymore. :D
ecargo on happy, but cautious by hendrimike 6 Mar 2006, 9:41 AM
Some nice details: "in the summer when the dusk calls you to dinner/and dogs go swimming in lakes swallowing sunsets." First couple of lines are awkward, esp. "shifting breeze that feels good to be near.
I think it's a really good poem. I didn't really like the line 'I'd rather be eaten by sharks.' I don't know, that line just didn't really flow to me. But it was a great poem over all.

'Alas doing for the sake of bread' is garbled. Something like 'hanging men for the bread on my table' makes more sense. 'The justice perhaps may'- No 'the' perhaps and maybe mean the same thing (in this context) so you should ditch one. 'Justice may have a thousand reasons' would be more obvious. 'to make him stranglehold' should be 'to strangle him' and the man does not surmount the knot. The knot is atop him. A mind can not realistically be said to be brittle because it is non-material. 'agonized faces many I have seen' should probably be 'I have seen many agonising faces'.

o so true...

Nice enough, although as you'd emphasised morning and evening, I'd like to see the second haiku have a 'midday' theme, just to complete the set. It would also give you scope to put a little more imagery in the second one; in comparison with the others it is lacking somewhat at the moment.
Ranger on The Ocean by Fayt 6 Mar 2006, 11:09 AM
I hate to say it but you're a syllable over. Change 'water' to 'spray', perhaps, that would fix it.
Ranger on Seawards by ecargo 6 Mar 2006, 11:11 AM
This absolutely raced past - with the exception of the last line, did you mean for it to slow down there?
ALChemy on The Ocean by Fayt 6 Mar 2006, 9:19 AM
Unless the ocean's name is "Sweet" I suggest losing the possesive form. While your at it change "Sweet" to something else. The ocean's not sweet it's salty. What's with all the caps in the first line.
lmp on some deleted poem 6 Mar 2006, 9:23 AM
for some reason i am reminded of the odd "spam poetry" that i get in my email sometimes. that is to say, neither good nor bad.
Fayt on some deleted poem 6 Mar 2006, 10:15 AM
Very creative imo!
Ranger on Portals to you by Caducus 6 Mar 2006, 10:58 AM
Nice, I'm tempted to suggest that you get rid of 'are' at the end of each opening line, maybe keep in in stanza 3 (at the start of line 2). Other than that, very pleasant!
Ranger on The King Of Loserville by mindsigns 6 Mar 2006, 11:00 AM
'Some think I should get laid' would fit better.
