- "This is a wonderfully hopeful piece, the line "It takes decades to see beauty in innocence
instead of unmarred pre-victim" really drove home your point. Ciao, T/S"

- "Love your visuals and the way you present a scene through the prism of your experience. "That grip on the reins that leaves creases
Across the grain of your lifelines" - excellent visual detail! Ciao, T/S"

- "Excuse me for a brief moment... This is one hell of a read. Scaring left on the inside while bleeding out_ almost lyrically. --So much pain that it's ridiculously haunting. I absolutely adore you cadymae! "

- "Interesting title, when people read/hear the word asylum, they tend to think --madhouse, crazy and psychotic living. But your piece has a double meaning, the struggle of self-proclaimed madness vs. trying to locate that internal safe haven to contain such flaws. I find the brain to be the most fastening organ known to man. And I personally, love the mystery and vast nature of it all. Magnificent read! "

- "My heart sank, and then arose throughout each transitional phase. You render me speechless and fumbling for all the right words to comment. You've taken me to a different world, cadymae, and I'm overjoyed. "

- "Oh my word... I've not read such poetry in quite some time. You remind me of one of my favorite famous poets, Gwendolyn Brooks, no one can hold a candle to her with such poise and perfection, but you... . I'm floored. I'm sorry, I'm gibbering. Perfection! -Curtseys"

- "Save us all from Ernest and his band of merry idealists Cadymae! You offer up a piece du resistance here with your considerable culinary skills and poetic perfection in constructing this daft characterization run amok. Loved it and so good to read you again, cheers! - Dan characterization. "

- "The first element of this work that leaps out at the reader is the originality of how the theme is addressed. It was a gripping experience to read and each line prompted our (at least my) empathy. A really fine work."

- ""But alas,
yet another chance has slipped away
while you paused
and half-smiled at your mind's eye's showing for the day." - fantastic! Everyday is a new chance...and most days it is indeed wasted. Great piece! Ciao, T/S"

you can hide all kinds of impulses from you" love that line and agree with T/s fantastic poem, and awesome style much enjoyed"

- "Resignation poetry is always delightful to read although offering a somewhat dismal, however true, view of life. This was nothing less than a delight to read and the introduction perfect for the theme. A work well worth the read! Excceltn!"

- "I enjoyed this piece very much. I like the notion of no longer reading Dove wrappers and not looking at bottle caps to see if you won...this was an interesting way to show the descent of cynicism. I think, although the last line hits hard, within it is also the hope that there MAY be some magic left, because "you know nothing of the world." Kind of a slap to the face, with a word of slight encouragement, I guess. : ) Ciao, T/S"

only to find it was I who stroked my hair as a child?"
