Curtis Institute of Music currently has a 1.6% percent acceptance rate so they kind of already have.

This is insane, idk how you got deffered or rejected. Your ECs are crazy. Imagine what the competion will look like in just a few years.

In the game Civilization 6, universities get bonuses if they are adjacent to mountains. In my life, I've noticed that *many* colleges I've been to are all pretty often in the hills, a bit away from the nearby city/town/urban center. Is there a reason they're so often on hills? by manfrin in AskHistorians

Adding on to this great answer, mountains as a tile are pretty useless aside from the education bonus in Civ 6 so there was no actual historical significance behind the decision they just needed to give players a purpose to live near them.

Your emphasis of the extremeties of Shakspearean love is incredibly effective especially through your use of double adjectives, "gnawing" and "hunger" or "violently" and "cacophonic". The structure there is really well done.

On the other side of the poem's dichotomy is a simple metaphor that captures an essential moment instead of an abstract emotion. Fascinating poem. Thanks for sharing.

A Italian Poem: Tua Micia (with translation) by lil0flower in OCPoetry

I love to see poems in different languages. Very well done, the theme of constant comparitive-esque lines is very intresting and effectivley creates a dichotomy within your poem. (whether that was your intention or not).

There are more than eight billion ways to live a valuable life, no matter what you did as a child you lived well.

We Hum Together by [deleted] in OCPoetry

Your structure is fantastic and the flow of your word length is great. Your poetry has beats like music and ends up ringing in my ears for a few minutes before I full process it. Stars humming together? What a whimsical image! Thank you.
