hello, everyone. my name is bobbie, also known as poetic_butterfly, and i've just registered. please let me know what you think of my poetry. this is called "sin" sin he knows, she knows the sin is alive and well its face twisted and mocking eye-sockets sunken skin dripping, mouth oozing bones rotting and they'll stand, vehemently lash silently while words slash throats and knives drive into hearts as they close in on the attack embody the jealousy they both know the rawness of the flesh sensitively unabiding and never significant are the internal wounds both suffer the bleeding hearts, the sobbing dreams shuddering souls all they realize and revel in are the vicious words that slash throats and the fact that sin has reared its ugly head..... |

Hi Bobbie, and welcome to the fam!  I think your poem is really good, the way you keep putting words in that reiterate anger, jealousy, hate, etc. They make your ideas hit home. Keep up the good work and I'll look for more from you. *~Meredith~* |

I really like this poem. It gives the low down vivid imagery of what sin is. Takes away the sugar coating that makes people wanna eat it. me likes, i give it a big toe and 2 thumbs up "If there is anything the nonconformist hates worse than a conformist it's another nonconformist who doesn't conform to the prevailing standards of nonconformity." Don't look... you might see. Don't listen... you might hear. Don't think... you might learn. Don't walk... you might stumble. Don't run... you might fall. Don't make a decision... you might be wrong. Don't live...you might die. |

Welcome to Passions. I really enjoyed reading this piece. It is an excellent free verse poem. The only suggestion I have is Capitalization and some punctuation. It just gives the reader places to break up the thoughts other then the end of the verse. I have a couple of little hints for you. First, don't ask for replies in your subject box. Generally people ignore pleas for replies. The best way to get replies is to reply to others work. When they see your handle and get to know you a little they will reply to your work. Again Welcome to the Passions family. |

this was beautifully written... you described the subject very well... great job... Regret for things you did maybe tempered by time, regret for things you Didn't do, however, is inconsolable... -------823------- |

dean: is bobbie a girl? i would have supposed otherwise... but i suppose it could be so.. poetic butterfly: i think this is a very well-written and well-thought-out poem, but it does seem rather vague as to what sin it is referencing... my mind tends to wander towards sexual sin, but the wording of the poem still leaves doubt... perhaps it is not even any one specific sin, but rather the personification of sin that you supply in the poem... hmm... i'll have to think about this one... let me know what you meant by it... sincerely, jerome the melancholy priest Disarm you with a smile And leave you like they left me here To wither in denial The bitterness of one who's left alone --[billy corgan]-- |

Bobbie: I echo Faith's reply..you ARE good! Keep it up, and you'll get even better like i did (not that I'm bragging...  )Anyway, welcome to the family, and good luck with your poetry! stay cool  ~~Lavada~~ "For every beauty, there is an eye somewhere to see it. For every truth, there is an ear somewhere to hear it For every love, there is a heart somewhere to receive it".--Ivan Panin |

i'm gonna have to go with jerome as to the clarity of the sin, lots of the wording was bit ambiguos, it hinted at sexual but you never knew for sure, maybe i'll get it in a few more readings. overall though i'll have to sya that ilike dthe poem and welcome, i hope tyo read more of your work rich-pa |

poetry_kills: yes, i am female. odd name, i know, but i was born on my father's birthday and his name is Bob, so it was fitting. i tend to be rather....hmm...symbolic in writing, and yes, the personification of sin is more or less what i was aiming at portraying. to the rest of you: (sorry i haven't named specific names, but it's a little difficult to remember them all, seeing as i'm new) thank you so much for the responses and the comments. i'll post something new very soon. |
