Review of Distant  
Review by Sox and Sandals
In affiliation with disABILITY WRITERS GROUP  
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
This is a very sad very descriptive poem about a solid mind falling apart. I have seen it happen to others and it is like a slow death that doesn't take the body with it. You are left staring into empty eyes wondering what is life like for them now? Is it worth it to keep living?

Review of Giving Thanks  
Review by Sox and Sandals

Rated: E | (5.0)
This is a strong poem offering gratitude as a solution not just an element of thankfulness. I suppose if you can't feel thankful it makes it hard to place value on any element of your life. and a life without value is a life without happiness. Thank you for writing this poem and getting me to think about things.

It can be hard fitting into a new place especially when you have it locked in your brain that being there means you have somehow failed. I have been to several mental health day centers and between medication and overall disorders, they are hard places to be.

Lovely flow and following of the form. Thank you for the description of the form, though it might not be as distracting from the piece if you put it in a drop note or a pop note. They are fun and clean up the page a bit another thing perhaps consider increasing the font size for easier reading?

Review of sick pigeon  
Review by Sox and Sandals
In affiliation with disABILITY WRITERS GROUP  
Rated: E | (4.0)
the world is full of pigeons, even the least pigeonlike of us is a pigeon about at least a small part of ourselves. Self insight is not a common trait in the human species. It is the part of the writer to try to get us to see around the dark corner of ourselves to evict our personal pigeons.

What a sad way to put a failed relationship. The repetition of what's knit can always be unknit. It is always sad when relationships fall apart this makes it sadder because it is the deconstruction of something strong and beautiful that leaves the parts scarred.

Review of a typical day

wow great poem given the prompt. I love the way you talked about writing without using the word. The list of forbidden words were really killer. I sympathize on your diabetes. Are you type one or type two. Do you require insulin? sorry that is getting personal. I love this poem about a simple day in your life.

Review of SOLACE

Everyone has regrets from their youth. Some regret academic mistakes. Some regret their choice of friends. Some had legal mistakes, though fortunately for many those legal mistakes are technically erased with adulthood. The point is everybody regrets something the key is not focusing on those regrets to the exclusion of who you have become because of them.

Review of Forever  
Review by Sox and Sandals

Rated: E | (5.0)
This starts out pretty creepy and then gets more romantic and spiritual. If only there were a way to get to the good part without that hint of creepy stalker. Maybe it is just something I am reading into it from my own experiences or it could be your word choices.

Is there more to this story? I hope so I really feel for the main character. I want to know his name and I want to know more about him. I really hope he finds his way through to a better life. Perhaps he could become a spy or something.Even better if he could find his way into his fantasy world.

I have met women like this. I know women like this. I like to think I see through women like this. Unfortunately, they are professional liars. They practice lying as a matter of personal pride. I worried at one time my sister was going to grow up to be one but she fell in with the right crowd and they wouldn't stand for it.

Interesting poetic form, I had not seen it before. I love this example of it and am interested in trying the form sometime. The subject is good and I love its flow and the way the flowing of a river is used to describe time it is a very intriguing poem and I hope the author finds the rowing partner they seek.

This has a few brilliant moments but gets kind of tangled up in what it is trying to say I could see a really interesting short story or poem coming from this but right now it is a bare word sketch of an idea you have rather fortunately not lost. I write this review to bring this piece back to your attention so you can see where you can take it from here.

This sounds like the description of a perfectly peaceful moment that is briefly shattered by the interpositioning of reality. I am pretty sure that isn't a word, not a real one but I like it and I am leaving it. I wish I had more of this kind of peaceful moment.

It sets up the characters fairly well and begins to establish the setting as well. No clue on the continuing conflict though. It is a good introduction.

Review of Emotions  
Review by Sox and Sandals

Rated: E | (5.0)
Perfectly describes the Bipolar roller coaster. The highs you don't necessarily want to have stop, the lows you think you will never climb out of. The time in between where you are numb or angry or just plain confused. You must not have the joy of mixed episodes where you cry energetically or your mind races you right off of emotional cliffs.

Scary! Every woman has nightmares about situations like this. You did your best to keep yourself safe and God had his angels protecting you that night. Not every woman has that clear a proof of god's love and protection. Just remember you came out of it safe.

Sick and twisted, great Halloween read! I kind of saw it coming though. It seemed too convenient that the prettiest girl in the school would fall for a near nobody. ANd then there was the murder house. The dude was doomed the minute that he went into that house. he should have run the other way when nature fell silent.

I thought it was a serious scary story and the you turned the volume down on the scary by making it a campfire story even the last line doesn't reverse that active disappointment. It is like killing a character off and coming back to say it didn't matter because it was only a dream. What serious writer would do something like that *Wink*

Oh I so felt every moment of this scene. Waiting for a call can just about drive you mad. Fortunately we have call waiting and can still receive calls when idiot computers want to waste our time playing back messages about how our car we don't own is about to have its factory warranty expire.

Interesting character description now I must find and listen to the song that apparently inspired this piece. great more things to Google. hey it isn't a really good poem if it doesn't make you think about it. This makes me curious especially the way you blended in those lyrics so seamlessly.

Review of Run for your life  
Review by Sox and Sandals

This is very self aware of you
Running away from your life tends to really be an attempt to run away from your self. The real escape comes not when you just stop running from things but when you finally sit down in a still place and embrace yourself, your choices, and your mistakes. Once you do that there is nothing left to run from.

I thought that this poem was going in a very different direction. I was sure that it was going to lament the way today's child is glued to screens instead of out playing like we did when we were growing up. Instead it points out that many of the author's job skills came from getting to play just one more game outside. Thi leaves me wondering if in this age of technology perhaps we would be better off letting children free with their technological inclinations. After all so many of today's jobs are far better served by a technological familiarity than the ability to mow a lawn. Who says what job skills they might be developing.

Review of Ritual of Life

This is an exultation of the existence of a good day. All to often anymore, good days are few and far between. This poem acknowledges that truth and points at another. Painful days hurt all the worse for having had the good times. It is one of the real master truths of the universe. It is why grief stings so bad.

I thought th wister was five years younger, is there already a bunch of gossip and popularity in the 8 year old circles? This story isn't the best, but I have both read and written waaay worse. 5 stars for having the balls to post and own up to this piece.
