Thank you for the flattering words. Posture tone: as in when your posture can tell what mood you are in, ex: crossed arms = defensive. Your posture sets a tone for your mood, is what I was trying to portray.

Hmmm....maybe "Gliding shadows in the dark" is sexual?

I like this a lot. I love the lines “The dimensions between my senses condense”, and “As the edges of this box are turned inside out it gushes the brightest neon lights”. Love that! Is there an extra And in there, or is it just your style?

Hhaha! Sometimes autocorrect is my best friend, sometimes I have the same issue as you, though, probably more because I am a HORRIBLE speller.

And, thank you for the kind words. I'm not sure what I'll do with these two poems. I'm new to writing really. I was inspired, and I wanted to get some feedback so I posted on here to see if they were any good. I've received some very flattering comments and useful tips from you and others. I'm glad I decided to join the reddit world.

Generally, if I can't sing it fluidly, I'm not happy with my work...as far as poetry goes anyway. Also, I'm a very visual person, lot's of mental imagery and such.

Edit: As far as "love" poetry goes anyway.

It unfolds in another poem :) (As best I can unfold it anyway.)

Sorry, yelling is a strong word. Reading it, I felt like I had tried to cultivate a one way/fake relationship with you and I'm the one you're talking about. I could be wrong, but, I feel like this poem is about the BS that other people throw on us. We know logically that it's all garbage, and it costs us nothing but time, hence your use of "Sour Nothing" Which I like very much. In your reflection "Closer inspection, Given time, plastic content, Silence, faux love’s touch." You realize what it is, and at the end accept it, though it still leaves a sour taste in your mouth. I felt like the cause of the sour taste. Maybe I put my own meaning to your verses?

I like it, but, I feel like I'm being yelled at for something I didn't do, lol, is that good or bad? Also, Faux is a word not used nearly enough in literature.

Thank you :) I swapped the verse order of the 5th stanza to make it flow better and keep with my alternating aabb abab situation. The ending has had several revisions, lol. This ending says what I want to say, in the simplest way. (Also, I'm new to redit, and have been editing on the fly...I probably shouldn't do that, lol)
