- "Self-sacrifice on a hope seems to be a setup for inevitable disappointment maybe, best of luck and all-consuming."

- "honor suicide? for a cause... for love... always a sacrificial offering... a burnt offering... such that the cold of its once-embers always haunts with a chill that the next soaked soul tries to incinerate but never will. This brings a tantalizing touch that leaves blisters before the match.... strikes. *bows*"

- "on great eloquence much depends, simple words more warming than a blanket, and their absense more chilling than ice"

- "Keeping it overly-simple perhaps, because sometimes simpler is better, but not all the time. Eventually the knuckle-dragging cave man will surface and single words will turn into physical blows, or maybe only rejection without expression or confession. Not a good partner for a poet I'd guess? Well done Natelle!"

- "I love that your poetry feels like it should be read slow, and emphasized in certain points that you seem to break off so as to draw attention to them. Some very nice lines that were pleasant to see and screamed in my mind as beautiful as literature may ever be...thank you for sharing."

- "I can't begin to find words for this, but if I had to I would say that this flowed nicely, and the pictures you paint with your words feel almost at peace until you twist it away at the end. Your yin should have yanged..."

- "The last stanza is beatiful, sounds like the one that this is about did a lot of drinking and left you to deal with the consequences? Parent or Husband, or Significant other?"

- "Tremendous metaphor with the telescope and the empty drink glass! Love to dig my toes in the sandy bottom when I go clamming. Enjoyed this piece on several levels, thanks Natelle!"

- "I love how you wrote this... the words and cadence is different, but the feeling is too familiar... some times i feel like teh only thing i write is similar poems, over and over... its good to see someoen elses words on it :)"

- ""I would give you a map of where all the landmines on my property were, and part the razor wire so you could join me behind the treeline. I don't care if I ever see any of them again, but I could stare into your eyes for a long time. It's safe here, back behind the treeline. Can you hear me calling to you from across the river? Please come, hurry. There's not much time. The snipers will be back at their posts soon, and crossing will be risky. Please hurry to my heart..."
