Rated: E | (5.0)

Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.


*Note* Title/Plot: Great title. It got me interested in what it's all about. Who was coming to earth? Were they friendly? Hostile? Something else? (Definitely have the taste of hostility personally, lately.)

*Exclaim* Style & Voice: The ending was hilarious. It was definitely not what I expected!

*Flower4* Scene/Setting: Great scene. I can't find any places to improve upon this. You did well with this 55 worder.

*Star**Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall Opinion: Don't change a thing! It's hilarious how it is. Great job! *Flower4*

*Note* Title/Plot: I think this title's fitting to this short piece. *Thumbsup*

*Exclaim* Style & Voice: You raise a lot of valid questions. I felt like I could sympathize with your character.

*Flower4* Scene/Setting: While it wasn't implied, I felt like I was sitting in a stuffy court-room awaiting a trail. Wow, reminds me of a recent email I got. I gotta stop 'cheating' on my reviews!

*Cut* Technical: I couldn't find anything technically wrong with this.

*Star**Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall Opinion: I can't find any room for improvement, great job! *Flower2*

Review of My shooting star

Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I like the title, but it needs proper capitalization. My Shooting Star *Star*

*Idea* Style/Imagery: I love shooting stars. This reminded me of how I used to sit in the street (it was a dead end street) at my mom's place and watch stars for hours and hours.

*Check5* Word Choice: Great job here. *Thumbsup*

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: The dashes could use without. I think your poem is strong without them. I might consider putting in different punctuation at the end of the lines, and perhaps capitalizing others.

*Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall: Overall I felt this was a really good piece. Thank you for sharing it and bringing back fond memories for me. *Flower5*

*Note* Title: Tldr; just kidding. It is a bit long though.

*Idea* Style/Imagery: Oh jeesh, funny! I laughed out loud at this.

*Check5* Word Choice: Great! Spot on. I loved that it was all dialogue, too.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: Only minor thing I spotted, there should be a comma...
fumbled with it, then... splash!

*Star**Star**Star* Overall: It could be the time of night, but I feel like I was missing out on some sort of joke. Saleswoman?

*Idea* Style/Imagery: Ewww, creepy! The imagery is definitely twisted. I LOVE. *Heart*

*Check5* Word Choice: I like your word choices here. Some that struck me in particular: twisted smile, dread shackled him to the chair, and writhed in agony. You can't go wrong with the last one.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: All's good. Except one tiny little comma missing after the dialogue. And, the spelling error. immunisations *Right* should be immunizations

*Note* Title/Plot: I like the title, but I think you should spell out 7. Game Seven? Maybe?

*Exclaim* Style & Voice: It almost sounded like you were announcing this on a radio, or something.

*Flower4* Scene/Setting: Not really applicable, though I think the 'scene' was told pretty well.

*Cut* Technical: I could find no errors, though I think what may have helped flesh this 55 worder out was by breaking up the sentences a little better.

*Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall Opinion: Overall, I thought you did a pretty good job with this. 55 worders are really tough! *Flower1*

*Note* Title: This title was amusing, and had me chuckling before I even read the poem. *Heart*

*Idea* Style/Imagery: The imagery in this is absolutely wonderful; perfect for a children's poem.

*Check5* Word Choice: Haha, I couldn't begin to pick one thing from this. It's all so awesome.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: I love the structure, how you repeated "that was terribly flat" in the second line of each, until the last stanza. Excellent.

Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I like the name of the title, and after reading the poem, have nothing better to suggest.

*Idea* Style/Imagery: I love the imagery in this, how you describe death as a shield from the light, how it betrayed you, and made you inhuman.

*Check5* Word Choice: A lot of words stuck out to me: empathy shatters, demented kindness, and puking flesh.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: I like the flow, and everything else. But in the last line, when you said intangled, did you mean entangled?

*Idea* Style/Imagery: Love the style. I almost feel like I can see the copper lantern amongst the darkness.

*Check5* Word Choice: I loved your wording. I have just one question though. In line 2 of the first stanza, you have scaring. Did you mean scarring?

Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "Season of Hauntings



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I love this title. Perfect. *Heart*

*Idea* Style/Imagery: I love the imagery in this. From the grave-images to zombies rising and vampires out to suck your blood.

*Check5* Word Choice: Great word choice. I couldn't have picked 'em better myself.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: Great free-verse, I like how it flowed. My only question would be, what's with the exclamation point in the center of the 5th line up from the end? I'd say kill that, or don't put the comma in front of it.

*Star**Star**Star**Halfstar* Overall: I enjoyed reading this, thanks for sharing it with us. I imagine that a lot of children would probably find this poem a bit creepy and fun to read. *Leaf5*

Review of The pain inside  
Review by Riot
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP  
Rated: 13+ | (3.5)
Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "The pain inside



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I like the title, but it needs proper capitalization. The Pain Inside

*Idea* Style/Imagery: I can really feel for you. I feel the anxiety of dealing with someone who's depressed and scared, and really feel like you're genuinely concerned for the person you're writing about.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: I think your structure and flow were good, but near the end I think you got a little sloppy with proper capitalization.

*Star**Star**Star**Halfstar* Overall: With some improvement, I think this poem would flow much better. Other than that I enjoyed the read. Thank you for sharing it with us. *Snow1*

Review of Poe  
Review by Riot
In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army  
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "Poe



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I love this title and I immediately know where you're going with the poem.

*Idea* Style/Imagery: I adore the imagery in this. From the bird and owner (companion maybe?) to sitting in the house with a bottle, to writing like a mad-man. *Heart*

*Check5* Word Choice: I can't just pick one place, but I think the last two stanzas really put the icing on the cake for me.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: Great free-verse. My only suggestion is to possibly consider adding punctuation at the end of some of the lines. It's not mandatory, however.

*Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall: Excellent share. Thank you for posting this! *Snow2*

Review of A Girl  
Review by Riot
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "A Girl



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I'm unsure of this title. I think I see where you're coming with it, but some more creativity into this well thought out poem might be better suited.

*Check5* Word Choice: I liked the words in here, but not the manner in which they were presented.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: Honestly, I know this is a free-verse and so meter and rhythm aren't really specialized here, but I feel like I had a hard time getting through this poem. I felt like most of the lines were crowded and ended abruptly. Maybe use of better punctuation could help out with it.
*Exclaim* Iraqi should be capitalized in the last line.
*Question* When there are questions posed later, you use a question mark at the end, but don't do so in the first stanza.

*Star**Star**Star**Halfstar* Overall: With a bit of work I think this has more potential, but right now I'm left thinking "Where's this going?" - The difficulty I had in reading it hindered me from really understanding it to its full potential. However, that being said, I still think it's attention worthy and that you should keep working on it. *Snow2*

Review of Self Destruction  
Review by Riot
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "Self Destruction



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.

*Note* Title: I love the title of this poem. *Heart*

*Check5* Word Choice: Some words that struck me in particular were: burn the bridges, self destruct, the impact shakes and cracks the land, and dawning consequences. I also really liked how you ended each stanza the same.

*Paragraph* Structure and Form: The only critique I have to offer on this free-verse is to keep an eye on how long some of your lines are, and maybe add in some punctuation at the end of your lines. Also, in the last stanza when you said crys I think you meant cries.

*Star**Star**Star**Star* Overall: Overall I felt this was a pretty good read. Thank you for sharing it with us. *Snow3*

Review of The Looking Glass  
Review by Riot
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Hello, I'm Justine, known here as Riot . This review is in response to your entry "The Looking Glass.



Please note that this is just a review and my personal opinion of what I read. It is not intended to be rude, hurtful, or in any way discouraging. Like all free advice you can take it or leave it as you please.


*Note* Title/Plot: I wasn't sure what to make of the title. After reading it, I'm still unsure.

*Exclaim* Style & Voice: I think you tell an interesting perspective story here. I definitely wasn't expecting that ending.

*Kiss* Characters: While you didn't reveal a lot about the characters, I still felt like I knew them in a sense. Great job.

*Cut* Technical: There was nothing I could find wrong with the technicalities of this piece. Some words that struck me were: Djinn, lovesick puppy and expertly mixing.

*Star**Star**Star**Star**Halfstar* Overall Opinion: Great twisted story! Keep up the excellent work. I look forward to reading more of your stuff. *Flower4*
