ssshhh...softly, in succulence... seemingly sad silence sleeps... suspended-- safe--a sure surpass-- saving souls-- save sorrow's sweep. ---Hear her-- Herald! Hell hath horror! (Help her...) Heal... Belief be borrowed. Whoredom hearts of habit, hollows... serenely, silently, free follows... tortured, treasured, taunts tomorrows-- Silence screams... she softly sorrows. *did not quite know where to post, but because it is a "workshop challenge", I am open for critique... just remember...I know "wrastlin' moves.."

Firstly delighted to see Janagator back among us even if it is only a flying visit. now on to serenity's poem, I have no idea what the challenge is but what it is it seems to me that you aced it. Excellent poem. "I concede relationships have left me weak Won't be here so I don't care Look for something worthy to replace my guilt" Mansun legacy |

hey there serenity...lovely poem, i love the alliterations very much....they flow well..being that u are open for some critique i was wondering if perhaps the line.. "Belief be borrowed." should be excluded from the piece b/c u have the H's and the S's and the T's...but u have only one line of B's and it seems out of place u know?...as for whoredom i just wanted to say that i think it was a nifty idea to have that there b/c it sounds like H but really begins with W... i like that a lot....besides that serenity i thought this poem was lovely and you truly done a beautiful job expressing these thoughts...all i suggested was simply an opinion ![]() much respect.< !signature--> "my love is my motivation my love is my inspiration perception of this poem is your interpretation" -- rlt [This message has been edited by JnR4eva (edited 09-02-2000).] |

Thank you Jn...and that line...well it had me scratching my own head...but I could not think of another way to express the idea without changing the alliterative (?) format...any suggestions? |

serenity i wish i could help you maximally but i am unable to do that respectively b/c i don't know what exactly your intentions were for your poem..however i shall simply put in one line and see if it remains true to ur theme...sorry i couldn't be more of a help ![]() * To make it even harder I just realized that they rhyme with another word...that makes it so much more difficult ![]() ---Hear her-- Herald! Hell hath horror! (Help her...) Heal... {{Heresy hauler.}} Whoredom hearts of habit, hollows... serenely, silently, {{sadly swallows}} i noticed that the F's were there to and i thought maybe that should go too..i tried to remain true to ur work..i hope it was somewhat insightful even if they don't make much sense ![]() "my love is my motivation my love is my inspiration perception of this poem is your interpretation" -- rlt |
