Re: Caged by TxMstng02	3-Jan-03/9:28 AM
just read that your only 18, I am 29 and have written poetry since I was 14, this is quite mature for your age. Keep choosing subjects that interest you, try to avoid forcing yourself to write. Some good advice: accept constructive criticism from the users on this site, most are cool only a few are vacuous twats, there will be some users you will hate to begin with but they are the ones you will respect as most are honest, some very crafty, some will decimate your work, some wont, sometimes the vote system will confuse you, sometimes a top poet will give you a 10 and another top poet will give you a zero, its all about taste, pathos and whether you are respected. Try and be courteous by offering critique on other peoples work. Their are some hidden diamonds on this site and one day when we're all dead we'll be rich. Good luck, now I'm off to lose another game of football

Rangers young for fucks sake but his work whatever you say has gotta Be respected, i couldnt write as a teen like this. I didnt understand all of this poemranker is not a hyperdermic shot of poetry some of it craves to be studied, votes can be postponed as intransit often does out of respect and i like that attitude, give the dude a break - hey ranger temporarily delete this do another version (if you can be arsed and compare the one you did for your palate and one for others) on 2nd thoughts go out tonight, seduce a woman, kick her out after, fill a pint glass full of bourbon and drink yourself in to a coma ! Is that a bad philosophy?

Re: That feeling by trisha	7-Jan-03/6:42 AM
Hi trisha welcome to p/r. I found upon reading this that i was forced to empathize with you and I wanted to see this from a less generic and more personal point of view, try and engage the emotion you want to write about and express it in a more ethereal way. ----5---
