'I reach, but the eagle flies too high My eyes, seared by the glare of hope Only shadows at my feet remain.'...gee Malcholm...this is all too familiar to many people I think...dreams cast aside in favour of the safe ,comfortable or familiar option...or sometimes by seemingly insurmountable obstacles...the very thought makes me sad...dream on Malcholm..."

- "i always wonder what happened to the words i grew up with .... now, it seems that the simplistic words dont mean what they mean .... the strange thing is, im not even talking about connotation .... im talking about the entire word has been morphed completely into another word ..... pretty soon, my excamations of "You Freakin Rock, Malcolm!" will be turned into something that means i dont like this write, even though i do like it .... i wonder if my asking "WTF is happening to our words?" will have the same meaning in another 10 years? ..... as of this date and time, You Freakin Rock ! is what i mean! .....thanks for the view!

- "Those feathers fell heavily indeed, but like the quiet before the storm perhaps they will be soon swept away by the hopeful blows and spun around and beyond, in flight to far lands not of dreams but of vision. Thank you, this was such great piece! "

- "It's a mixed message this world sends. Everyone says follow your dreams, yet those dreams travel a rocky path. We follow them anyway, with blistered feet and fleeting resolve. Why? Perhaps just to be told it was worth it in the end, or maybe we actually believe something is there waiting. I'll stop rambling now, nicely written piece, for all the aspiring dreamers out there.

- "The part when the hippie walks into The Mother Load was a lot like that scene from PeeWee's Big Adventure, at least he didn't start dancing. I was held captive by this story, it's such a heart warming sight, hippies and hicks coexisting lol. You always know how to lighten the mood, thanks."

- "Had they made Misery completely faithful to the book, it might have been too graphic for the general viewing public lol. Of course I wouldn't have minded much."

- "here, here... very few of his books transfer well into movies... had they used the written ending in Pet Sematary in the movie, we would still be afraid of the dark... "

- "aye, being prey for a hunter is something that not many know .... the neck tends to twist at every sound and shadow .... is there not more torture 'awaiting the call' than actually meeting destiny where she falls? .... you have written a fine piece here .... the flow was smooth and the story line captivating .... thanks for the view!"

- "The lives of the wicked shall fear the night, so long as vengeance stalks behind them. Had a Kill Bill vibe to it. A dangerous huntress prowling the shadows, waiting, lurking. Write on my friend. "

- "murder, typified... haha nice.... the type of murder that ravishes in dwellings of diction and dire fiction.....like a magician who murders with murmurs... words of the alchemist that fly of the screen like so many winged monkeys ;) haha I did see a relation, I wasn't sure I could separate the two, even (I went looking among your works to see if there was another with 'remember me by', which I hope is not implying anything beyond the art)."

- "I imagined observing the police questioning a killer, at first he's silent, then with a twisted grin he spills every gruesome detail. The evil seeping from every remorseless word, really presented some chilling thoughts. Write on."

- "IT, the reason every child hated clowns. It seems like just yesterday I saw that paper sail boat flowing into the storm drain. Nicely written my friend, and remember, "we all float down here.""

- "This is excellent. I still remember the horrors of the photo album and the fortune cookie ........'it' is a classic nightmare living in our childhood ..........you gave me the chills i had managed to forget a while back .......you know, i stopped making paper boats ever since. Well done sir :)"

- "I also really like the line: "No telephones, no visitors, nothing but the sadness." And, again that final verse, leaving us w/ a kind of dark, cyberpunk SciFi speculation."This tortured soul must take refuge from its' pain So a plug was pulled which disconnected the brain..." Of course, it doesn't have to be skiffy or cyberpunk as these hospital-factory worlds exists in reality, but I sense something more fictional (could just be me?). All the same, I love it."

- ""Of this tortured, helpless creature hobbled by his chains." A very inspiring, speculative poem you have created here. I really like your rhyme-timing; it works very well. Oh the prisons we all find ourselves within only to become withdrawn. The only thing I, IMO, would change is to keep, or write "I am withdrawn" twice in what can be called the chorus (if this were a song) i.e. instead of adding "for I have gone" I'd repeat the title. I think it would be more effective, but still, it is your poem, that is my little critique, constructive I hope. It's a very powerful, poignant work. You have let us inside a deep, personal place. Behold, our enduring fates! I really like the change of pace & style in the final verse: it works perfectly, ends as it should; simply & to the point. Very well written! Cheers."
