I would like to thank you for taking the time to come and read some of my poetry, it is greatly appreciated. I often write experimentally and add hidden messages and/or make formatting that is just as poetic as my words. Please take any criticism I may write as something I think may help you and something that is simply my opinion. I do not ever go on to assume that I can write any poem better than anyone else and/or that I am a better poet than anyone else. I have taken a lot of poetry classes and workshops and learned some great techniques that helped me, I simply try and pass on that valuable information on to other poets. I would also appreciate the same; if you find anything you think I need to work on, please do not feel like you will hurt my feelings. I want to continue to grow as a poet and will appreciate any feedback. The I just ask if you would please not comment on my poem to tell me that I have misspellings when I do that on purpose or telling me that my "i"s should be capital when in fact I sometimes do this on purpose as well. I simply ask for an open mind. Instead, I would appreciate feedback like, "the lowercase "i"s you use do not work so well in my opinion because..." As I said before, I would appreciate any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism that would help me and isn't biased.

Tercarro : Like you on October 5, 2007I like you do not pretend to be a better writer than anyone else. Writing is like beauty, it is in the eyes of the reader and what one writes can be read in any way one choses which may not be how the writer intended. having said that, we can all agree that some words flow better than others, it's simply a matter of choice. For me, I think we should all try to use what ever makes it's mark and ignore the rest of the world. English is like any other language, it is changing with the world and will not remain stagnent nor be tied by rules even if the english prof wants it written and spelt by the book. keep writing how you will and if given advise, check it out, try it and then decide if you like it and if you do, it matters not what others think even though we would or may want our peers to enjoy it.
Good luck in this cut throat world of open heart critism.
Terry
