Never penalized a girl for ribbons,
but with the dress – well then
she deserves what she gets
He said to me what do you expect?
You can’t get away with that
And I said so this is your bliss
If you can always pick the cherries
from my pie and then refuse to lick
your fingers you will never know
what it’s like on the inside

I like this.  A good balance was established in the line sizes, which helped it flow better.  It sounds so spoken, this poem has some very nice vocal hints that are a treat to read.

You might be better served to use quotation marks when you have a character in your poem speaking, though.  That's one thing I noticed.  Of course, I understand if you'd rather not... just a preference.

I agree with Jenn both on the poem and the critique message. I don't know what I expected from the title, but I loved what I read.

hey,
that was an interesting piece, i actually found myself thinking of it as sexual, but then i was like "shut up Bergundy! not everyone is as perverted as you are!" lol. so maybe it is, maybe it isn't..reguardless, it's still neat. haha that pry made me sound like an ass, oh well. s'all i have to say about that.

Ooo wow. Wow a million times over. You always write with such an amazing intensity, Jaime. The bluntness is what strikes me most. It's right out there, essentially saying take it or leave it.

Much enjoyed. Thanks for the read.

I wasn't too sure about this one at first cause I thought it was just my perverted mind, but I guess I was right. I love how you're posting more Jaime This one is just way too cool

mmmmmmm...

i really did enjoy this one.

but i found that it almost melted all together.

perhaps there's a way that you could distinguish the different layers to this pie?

and kudos for the critique message.

nice work jam.

I'm curious... after rereading the poem, not being sick and all, I have just one question - what will he not feel on the inside? I have a few ideas, but I'm not sure which is correct. And I forgot most of what you told me about the poem, because, well, I was sick then too, I'm sure. A wonderful read, memina, then and now.

Can we see some more, me dear?

Sincerely,

Ooooo this poem rocked. I really liked it a lot in every way possible. Especially in the way it was meant to be.
