I tend to like more rhythm and fewer, more precise words in poetry. That being said, it is a story well told.
Re: A Part of Me by Quarton 12-Feb-07/9:15 PM
I like it overall. The puncuation and grammar errors throw me off though. If you are going to use form to help your poem, use it to make it more readable. The form here makes it harder to read I think. Also, "with my beliefs though, I can no longer take refuge in them knowing" This sentence is grammatically incorrect. I think :)

Thanks. I wish I had her back.
Re: Complaints by jessicazee 15-Feb-07/9:21 PM
I really like it. I see something clearly. Dad comes home from hard work, to a child who wants to play. He just can't handle children being children when he's tired.

I could be off, but it works for me.

It's just fun to read.

Southern Comfort always brings me spirit wisdom.

I love your poetry.

I like it. Sounds like a Dylan song.

I think you could stay with the analogy through the last line. Don't give it to us. I got it right away. Nice poem.

It doesn't have an obvious name to me. I tried for about ten minutes, but it's obvious I'll need to let this one stir in my brain for a bit.

Think about changing the end of stanza 4. I have a picture in my head until those last two lines, and there it's disrupted. It makes sense, sensically, it just draws me out for some reason.

Cool poem.
Re: The Corner Tavern by jessicazee 18-Apr-07/1:18 PM
I see it.

No reason to put "(child abuse)" in the title. We get that. For your next one try to come up with an analogy that describes the situation, but relating to a different object/setting.
Re: Pink BAlls by EAger to Offend 19-Apr-07/7:08 PM
7 for the laugh.
Re: Always there by holliebollie_19 19-Apr-07/7:11 PM
Kinda nice.
Re: Makin' Bacon by NICKDRP 19-Apr-07/7:16 PM
Kinda reminds me of a Dr. Suess.
Re: Rap? Hip-hop? What has this thing become? by DreamerSupreme 24-Apr-07/12:50 AM
Normally the title would turn me off from this. Maybe I'm just in the right mood, but I can see this as a song. A good mix of street and smart.
Re: Vesuvius by Frizz 24-Apr-07/1:07 AM
I like alot of this, but you should work out the words a bit more in places I think. These two lines broke me from the read "How Stalin was one fucked-up looney." and "We thought nuclear weaponry was fun and amazing,"

There's always a place for a good "fuck", but it just cheapens your poem here. There are rarely good places for "fun" or "amazing" in poetry. "acidic reality" is a bit easy too.

It also doesn't come around to the punchline smoothly. Maybe another stanza before, or just flesh out the Hiromshima stanza to bring it home.

I really like:
"Red went with blue and white,
And I desperately wanted to be Chinese,"

Haikus

short enough.

In the future, will you please use 'cunt' to describe a woman, and 'fuckface' to describe a man
