when you read this, do you rhyme "glass" with "ass" with "Lass", or "glarz" with "arz" with "Larz", or...?

eh. not a limerick. I need to set up something to deal with these cases. If I want to look at limericks, I want to look at limericks...

HILARIOUS. though "hierarchy" doesn't quite fit the rhyme. it would be close to perfect if it did.

you're right, I did want to look up amplexus. Though I have trouble seeing the girl as a frog. I like the stretch of ex-treme-ely. :)

several bits where the lines don't fit the form; rather hurts tromping through a limerick and you hit one of those bits.

very nice. =) I haven't seen a limerick done "poetically" in my life, I think.

I'm confused. Oh, I see -- I was reading "two of four children, including me as one" to mean you were one of the two... which made the rest of the poem very skewed.
The actual rhythm of the poem I find overly halting, stopstarting, and repetitive -- it drones.
I'm left mildly curious as to what's happened to or with them.

| Re: Lysander cried by bornagainpoet |

it's cute. If Lysander is someone I'm expected to know, I don't get it. If Lysander is you, my personal opinion is to keep personal names out of things. I can't really empathise with it when I'm being jolted out like that.
Also, the scan/rhythm/flow/whatnot could use a little work; maybe just fixing the grammar or making a proper nod to it would do it.

both. if you're logged in, it limits by logged in user. if you're not, it limits by ip (which is the best I can do, in that case... and is the argument for disabling anonymous votes...)

you can only leave one, sorry. :) you can only vote on a piece once. if you vote again, that replaces the previous vote. but if it made you feel better, then fine... :)

weird. I really can't understand the second stanza for the life of me. I like the sounds the poem makes. It took reading the comments to see where the last stanza was coming from. Maybe if you only capitalized the beginning of sentences it would be more obvious that the last stanza followes the previous. weird.

I think it would take a mother to love this. Which is what it was meant for. I'm sure she did.
However, there's little of artistic merit in it. It's rather painful to read for those not involved with it.

hmm. this was too proselike for my taste, and the intro ditty really didn't do it for me. the "form" is somewhat interesting, but could still _flow_ better.

awkward to read, couldn't get into a rhythm; the sentiment doesn't do anything new for me or move me.
