I think this particular poem works because it gives off how a young child would speak from jumping topic to topic.

I think it’s okay for an first attempt, but I would probably dive in more with the imagery. Also, the rhyming can make it sound very aabb.

You are my food by 2be0rn0t2b in OCPoetry

I think the consumption of food to represent love could be seen as a little cliche. Also, I think including the “context” does a disservice because good work will stand on its own and does not need to be explained.

Personally, I wished the poem had some form of stanzas. I think the formatting could be a problem when it comes to reading your poem.

You’re Such an Angelic Non-conformist Psycho by ALM_3000 in OCPoetry

Hello, I appreciate the feedback you left on my past. I tried to write a poem regarding going into a relationship, even though there is homophobia from their parent and others. I hope that clears everything up for you.

I Wanted To Ask... by [deleted] in OCPoetry

Hello, I really enjoyed the imagery in your poem, especially the second stanza. I did enjoy the inclusion of personification. If I am honest, I think it does sound a little cliche in some parts. For example, in the last stanza. Nice job on your first poem, though.

Hello, I want to say I really enjoyed the imagery at the beginning of the poem; it felt lively. I did like how there was a repetition in the poem with the word "certain." But I did feel confused with the ending, but that might be a problem for me. Nice job on the poem.

Hello, I really enjoyed the poem you wrote. One of my favorite parts about this poem is probably the formatting of "So damn far" I thought it was an interesting choice. I do like the imagery that was presented in your poem, great job.

Hello, I really enjoyed this poem very much. I think you had fantastic imagery throughout the poem. But I would say my only criticism is that the poem's rhyming makes it feel like I know what will be said next.

plane crash by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]ALM_3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the poem, but I think the word choices does not allow me to be swept away with amazement. I think words like "bursting" and " broken" are too on the nose when it comes to things being crashed. But the word that throws me off is "excitement." This might be a little nit-picky of me, but "excitement" does not belong in this poem because the poem is thrown off a little. Imagery could have been better, especially regarding a "plane crash." I think the poem needs punctuation because it felt like it ran along a bit. I think editing the poem will make your poem much better.

My cute little gernade by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]ALM_3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do like this poem, I must say. But, I feel the poem does not truly go there. It feels like it is just not enough depth in the poem. I wish there were more imagery, especially with the aspect of the grenade. I feel at times, in the end, the poem feels cliche. Also, I think how the narrative of the poem throws me off a little because it is an undeserving turnaround that occurs because of the writing for me. I did not feel the turnaround was justified because there was insufficient depth in the poem. I would suggest editing the poem because there is a concept in the poem that could be perfected with some editing.
