yeah. good idea. make love not war. why can't we all just get along? buck up, little camper, every cloud has a silver lining. here, have one point for each unoriginal stanza.

although this sounds like a pleasant diversion, i'll pass.
what exactly do you mean to do by posting others' work as your own?

leave p&k (journalist) alone. he didn't touch her.
oh, yeah, sorry for your loss. have a nice score for your poem. maybe that will ease the pain a little.

nope. sorry. you were correct: your
heart has been turned to the color of nightfall.

ah! gazania! such beautiful patterns and colors--each different! and, responsive to the warmth and light of the sun, folding herself up at night, demurely. excellent choice!

and iris--delicate, fragrant, so temporary. nice.

3rd to last line--should it be 'now' instead of 'know'?

what changed?
on Frozen Angel by Ranger 18 Dec 2002, 7:42 AM
there are some lovely passages here, but some of your word choices, i disagree with. so much talk about 'heart' and 'timeless' makes it feel worn. also, i am not sure what the resolution is. i am assuming that the 'frozen angel' is a cursed lover? am i correct?
on The North Wind by Ranger 18 Dec 2002, 7:46 AM
i think the low scores are due to the fact that you have basically strung together a load of cliches. the rhyme feels forced; at first, given what you were trying to say, i thought that maybe you shouldn't try to rhyme it, but then i saw you were going for a lyric--and the rhyme still feels forced. try saying this in your own words, not with a dozen catch phrases you have heard over and over again.

does that help at all?

line breaks, babycakes!
on The North Wind by Ranger 18 Dec 2002, 7:46 AM

i'm not sure what you mean here:
Mother in me, she alone
has the attributes.

almost there...

i like your explanation. as far as i'm concerned, this is the crux of the piece:

Yes I pulled this sword out of the stone for you
Now watch me, as I use it to run you clear through.
It all comes down to this

it all hangs on that
on some deleted poem 21 Dec 2002, 9:58 PM
um, no, it won't. but for your sake, i hope i'm wrong.
