The tweaks are pressed into places like poemranker by the old who keep them out of the controlling positions in the workplace.
Okay, I'll work on it.

Sometimes I take a year off to refuel my creativity. I'm wierd that way. I don't know when I'll be kicking it into gear again though.

sobriety anniversary, perhaps, but i do not think so. maybe a bout of mental illness, but minor, like seasonal defective disorder. or maybe just allergies.
anyhow, this could be more subtle in the way it is written and the rhyming is too forced, in my opinion. not all poetry needs to have an even meter and rhyme pattern; simple, effective groupings of words often convey a more powerful/clear message.

it seems slightly repetitave, and overall sad, but it's something that a lot of people can relate to.

yes and also; the orange sun is a reference to "Impression: sunrise" (and others using a similar technique) while it is also a nod to the rising influence of being able (through talent and advances in materials) to acheive the groundbreaking results he (and other impressionists) did. It's a, ah - "poetic device".

So it's just the act of the lie that hurts - not what is actually said. I get it, It's the nature of the truth that hurts - cancer, cheating - not the act of telling the truth. So, where's the irony? LOL...kidding, I am just dizzy from reading all the twists.

where is the unusual? What is it that defines this couple and their lives as being unusual? The story is not so different to everyone's apart from the fact that it's happening to them -

go do what ALChemy said - you can tell a story, but force it unnaturally into rhyme. Try free versing this - I bet it will surprise you

If there is a riddle here - I can't get it...Hidden messages in poems work the best when not even hinted at...I find the flow a bit messy too...but you got me curious???

you could cut this a bit - drop some of the filler words, tighten it up. Not sure where you are going with it - abuse is the only real image I can get...

re-reading some of your work. you are quite the goth girl, eh? i refer also to "little goth girl". google it, relates to the satan/maiden images you have written about, but in a much lighter (but still dark) way.
