Oh blargh. Drama on that thread with your poems on it. Sorry about that. I'd just like to say that no matter what ends up being said, the basic opinion I've got is that you look like you could be an awesome writer. One of the reasons why I didn't bring up your first poem -- the longest one, I mean -- is because that's pretty much proof of what I thought. It was a pretty well-written poem. Imagery that made people picture what was going on. Seemed to have some kind of meter at first. Had a personal touch that evoked a lot of emotion in a reader. Couldn't figure out if you were gunning for a rhyme scheme or not, but that didn't really hinder things too much. Really, I thought it was your best effort. Point is, it's what made me think you have potential, so I hope you don't get too confused over whether or not I think you can make it as a poet.
