Better than most of the pop lyrics I hear. I'd like it get into the kinda mood of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" a little more though.

Well, as long as you write about and don't do it that's good. It happens I am a woman and my tits do sag, but ya know what, I wear a bra and stand erect and go about as if I had something worthwhile to do besides write and write about sadness.

Is Shakespeare your tutor? I don't like most of his sonets and I don't like this, even if it is hard to write.

Oh, for God's sake get over it! Have another drink. Write another poem. Go for a walk. Do something! This sitting around feeling sorry for yourself, well it's selfish and wrong. If I were on the stool next to you I'd buy you a drink.

I like the cow pies turning ripe in the rain and their smell in the wind, a fresh, good smell. I've had my own private thunderstorm and liked it very much.

The Enlightenment gave rise to the American Experiment, the French Revolution, and the now ubiquitous understanding that all people have intrinsically equal rights to purse happiness. Everywhere except England. Your âgentlemenâ are feudal reminder of what our ancestors fought to destroy. And now your prime minister tries to make it all right by latching onto our president like a whining boy to a big brother. No, Sir Robins, your lance is obtund. You live in dreams of dead glory.

Oh, Wow, could I have been so cruel as to imply that asses should be kicked?

"Now you see," but how so? You imply consciousness after suicide death. Better to say the killer is gone and knows nothing. vote-7 only because it's well written.

What a terrible father you must have! Quite well written and convincing. Too much punctuation. The title - why only you?

They named Hollywood after what they thought was holly. It was not holly, but a look-alike, the toyan bush, which also has red berries at Christmas time. Hollywood's been a fake ever since. And use spellcheck!

I'm only laughing at myself, the fact that I have been in Katie's place and answered a man as she answered. The best thing about a poem is to find myself in it.

Good meter and rhyme, but the message is overstated. Lines like "I can become Anything I want to be" don't cut it, not in my world. I hear what you're saying, but please keep it real.

I don't like this one nearly as well as your other. This seems written out of anger without close attention to craft. It's a whiny poem. And double-spacing doesn't help, nor do the lack of a spaces after commas.

Yes, I understand Katie. It's how I answer his questions, then re-answer when he asks again. Nicely done.

These are the easy questions, which if answered, lead to the hard ones.

The first verse is very tender and warm. The first two lines of the second verse give it all away.
