Good, quite political I think, but does not descend into a rant because the language is fresh and original.

Re: On The Floor of the Hospital by Fear of Garbage |

imagery is bordering on disturbing.
'On the floor' is a nice touch. Are they actually on the floor uncared for, or a hospital floor.
Not sure I grasp the plant metaphor though.
Maybe it is about a plant? with a brain?

greek mythology is certainly rich material.
Think this is trying to be a description.
Enjoyable, not many rhymes hephaestus with discus.

is this all first draft or just the letting one go part?
liked the ridiculing of the girl admiring a crap piece of art
should be devilled egg. Otherwise it would read de-viled which it certainly was not

penultimate verse: you were so beautiful....
is when this really gets going. Certainly memorable.

ember twice is a mistake. And does the moon really glow like an ember?
Seems to be a lot going on here, searching the grass/ the revenge/ the piano.
Lots of nice phrases, not sure how it all fits together though

too prosaic really, nothing new.
I quite like the rhyme of the first three lines, flows well.

an advert disguised as a poem.
Bit like swedens eurovision entry which claimed to be a song, when it was an instrumental with some guy talking at the beginning.
anyway this 'poem' is sweet as pie and dark. I like it.
When you are famous will your name be j handrinos?

unconventional way to use analogy in the first line.
Sets a frivolous tone.
you repeat sheets in the final verse which is unneeded.
The jump to second verse is less than seemless.
other than that ace -8-

probably should not include thee in a poem just to rhyme.
There is an awful lot to sort through here, and it feels like you could shorten it and strengthen its essence.
the surprise at the end is made good by the reference to heir earlier on (I had presumed it was some rich bloke) and then it clicked.

good that you use only the occasional rhyme (hens and friends) better than leading this story with rhyme.
