- "If you're insinuating what I think you are, let me put your mind at ease. My work is, always has been and always will be genuine. Now, some of the lines are bound to seem familiar; there are only so many words in the English language that make sense together without sounding like a discordant mess. I assume you're new here, so here's some friendly advice; perhaps you should read a little more into someone before making a baseless accusation. I encourage you to read more of my work though, it too is genuine, and much better than this contrived little thing. I'm still a little buzzed from earlier, so, correct me if I misinterpreted your comment."

- "Nothing wrong with dabbling in complexities here and there. I find that some structures actually breathe new life into a message, if used properly. However, to focus only on the framework and on nothing in the middle, that's where the problem arises. I believe poetry to be a careful balance of feeling and form, too much of either can be a bad thing. "

- "Funny that you chose this subject matter as a way of getting back into the swing of things. Often times, I'd stare into the endless precession of stars and more than likely, have something to say about them. It takes capable hands to even scratch the surface of what's out there, this was penned by one such pair."

- "Funny that you chose the word, "facets"; that pretty much sums this piece up as a whole. Little nuances here and there, something sleeping and profound, a lot of things register with this piece. Minimalism tends to do that to a person. A fine first entry, enjoy your stay. "

- "The scheme goes along with the style, called villonnet; an amalgamation of villanelle and sonnet. I stumbled across it one day looking for something to test my skill at the time, it had that classic feel, but enough flexibility to be brought into a modern setting."

- "This isn't really one of my "earliest", those are actually cringe-worthy as well. You've heard of the DP College course, right? Well, this was my final exam, the sister poem to Robin's Song. The earliest work I have posted here now is Padded Room, and that was merely posted by request."

- "Yes, it does seem like a dead horse, eh? You think you've all but removed a part of your life, then suddenly, it encroaches again. I had a muse like that once. Had that faithful day not come where I realized that he was a man and not a monster, I would have still been writing about him."

- "Well, as the author's note suggests, this is a parody of my first attempt at a villanelle. It's taking a jab at the more nonsensical lines I threw in to fit the form. I'm also an Engrish enthusiast, so there's that."

- "You wouldn't realize how appropriate this is, considering the circumstances. A good cry is as cleansing as deep meditation, it does one better to stare headlong at their mortal self. We're all human; thinking and feeling creatures"

- "I can't put it as eloquently, yet I agree, word vomit insinuates that this lacks cohesion or direction, that everything is simply random happenstance, simply, a lyrical tangent. I don't see that here, I see honest emotion and an apparent rhythm as subtle as the wind is intangible. Much respect."

- "To be imbued with the power to feel history itself, hear the boundless call of the ancients echo across the bedrock, that's what I felt like I had for the duration of this piece. I falter when commenting your work, it's obvious why."

- "I really liked the play on words, all with a different facet of hope, the play on colours, especially. Dealing in contrasts, like turquoise and shadow, and the receding rust almost seemed like an ocean. Seeing your posts again reminds me, I have some reading to do. Fine piece."

- "I find myself ashamed, coming here too late to tell someone their work was striking, beautiful in its bare honesty like the echelon of very few. It's still pretty fresh in my mind, the last time we lost someone here, I didn't know you that well, but R.I.P. for the ones that did."

- "Very delicate, ethereal imagery and subject matter. Makes me feel like I'm floating, perhaps closer to the same new beginning."

- "There's something magical in minimalism, that causes one to gaze deeper into its words than others. Perhaps like the hummingbird, the words themselves seem to flit about the mind, and share such sweet nectar. This is a fine piece."

- "Of course Karen takes the good comment, all I can say now is that anapestic hexameter really lends well to the subject matter, its flow is actually pretty appealing to the eyes. "
