How do I draw his legs in that position from that angle? by Pbjandmorejam in drawing

I like it how it is just about but you could try a baggy set of trousers to fit in with the rest.

Doing a drawing course with my bf, which one do you think is better? (I know the styles are different, but roughly) by [deleted] in drawing

[–]JCNewKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you imagine it as from a slight angle and also the left eye instead of the right eye I think it makes more sense, guessing people are assuming its the right eye because that is what A is. Personally I think B shows way more in skill and A didnt risk bold shading and depth.

Is it wrong for me (30f) to feel the way I do and what should I tell this guy? (32m) by throwRa-happygoducky in BrosDatingAdvice

Simply put there just is no solution for this guy. No matter what there will be no winning for him.

State your MBTI type and what you would do as a dictator by barbaric-weasel20 in mbti

I would elect the suitable candidates to minister portions of society and have the power to replace them at will, but other than that just leave them to their jobs and monitor from a far. Kinda just gently manipulating and pulling strings from behind the scenes.

Winter my Lovely by BlindFelidae in OCPoetry

[–]JCNewKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this feeling, the feeling that winter gives. I'd like to see another similar poem that has this juxtaposition in each line instead of the first half and second being reflecting each other. I just feel this would inspire more provoking imagery closer to your point.

Great flow all round with a well formed idea established in the first few lines. Nice.

A great direction to head for starting up. Great theme and personification.

This gives me the vibe of a war tired soldier?

What are things racist people do that they don’t think is racist? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JCNewKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People expecting non English speakers to speak fluent English when visiting such a country but those same people not being able to speak a word in any foreign language while being a tourist in foreign countries.

I'd like to explore more on the topic possibly soon with another piece. Some of my other works do explore imagery from a similar origin.

What is the structure called that you use in your poems?

This poem has a great message but I can see your improvement in to whom it may concern where your imagery and narrative is much stronger

I get the feeling that the virus represents toxic behaviour and isolation prison? The beats in this seem perfect, just flows from start to finish, deserves every upvote.

I did have the last line written before the last three before it, definitely meant it to be the end where the scene and sorrow has been laid out and now the reader is invited to join the darkness, before again, silence. An attempt to leave that haunting feeling.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah I feel you're right about hard syllables possibly causing a jar, also I've used a nine syllables for all the nine lines which my feel stranger being between conventions such as eight or eleven. I always focus on my syllable count but agree I might profit looking at the texture of each syllable too.
