The language is brilliant.

I always thought old peoples bones just kinda crumbled, learned something today.

I like this especially the last stanza, it has quite a lazy feel to it, and I found it quite a matter-of-fact read. Like I guess they take whatever comes along as part of their life.

Pretty funny - darkly so, but a fair and just thankyou to your rescuer.

Don't know why I like this...

The Bee Gee's stayin' Alive came rushing to my head when I first read this. It has a very 70's feel to it, maybe it's because all the guys' stash was so very much on show back then.

Some great lines - not sure about the third stanza, doesn't really speak of the rebel, just some things that sound kinda rebellious.

Blackpool? Great little tale - true story?
Surely there has been a ban on those suits of shell for years!

I feel this wibbles and wobbles in places, could be tighter.

For some hollywood reason I was wanting her to have been the one who killed him, for moaning about her bread. Is that what was meant or is the first stanza a little misleading? Or am I just being twisted?

Not sure about the context but I feel there are too many 'i' sounds in the one area. The last line - make me fly toward you or make me fly to where you are. I'm no expert on english but the way you wrote it doesn't seem to fit right. Could just be me, wouldn't be the first time.
This seems fairly dark and for that I like it.

Love the story - but the spacing distracted me a little

first two stanzas set me up with a rhythm, and the last three tripped me up a little...

I do love to think in colour - but I can't get the image out of my head of seagulls with nice white teeth!
on Rolling Bells by MacFrantic 31 May 2007, 9:07 AM
molesting - dragging - torturing, and all things associated with the living...so visual here. Still not entirely sure this has clicked in its meaning with me, but I get lost in the movement within.
on surgical spite by calliope 29 May 2007, 5:55 AM
I get the feel of emo - but the cuz in the last line doesn't fit with the rest of the write. You could lose it and keep with the darkness, it lightens the write too much - almost childish.

don't like this...too bland and matter-of-fact
(I'm sorry, that seat is taken.) great line - work back from there and shorten your sentences - pull it all in tight and the image will just pop...
