Well done, and provoking, though I'm a little confused by the abbreviated spelling of some of your words - r.e.a.l, t.a.s.t.e, t.o.u.c.h, etc... textural words. I found the racing pace of your poem to be strong and compelling.

'But I am strangled by your cotton wool silences'

Great Line! Thanks for posting.

This is an awesome poem, a little bitter, but still good. I like your formating; it doesn't flow very well in some places but still very well written. My favorite lines? I liked the whole poem, but I really liked the ending:But I want to be h.u.r.tE-v-e-n if it’s just to proveI can be

Great poem, keep writing!

Gack! Hmm...Did I forgot to review this one? i remember reading it though..*crickets chirp..shrugs*...AH! WAY coolio! Um, well to tell you the truth i didn't always like this format, but this peice has helped me to change my mind, because of the carefully-placed sharp imagery. Even though it may seem sinister and bitter i think its actually very uniqe n original. The font styles and brackets and everything just tie together what you were going for..a sort of twisted blend of emotions. It's not too cut-throat, and its not too soft, but the poem, itself is a perfect balance of both. I liked how you wrote a line and then in brackets, the reality. Maybe you could try and fit it all together more, but i think it's probably how the format of the poem is supposed to be. Anyhow, I thought it was pretty cool and original. Keep it up! _Me

hey! i'm back! i'm so so so so so so sorry i haven't had a chance to review you in a while. well, u know why. grounded and very very busy. but, i'm back now and i'm up and running and i'm reviewing everything i missed. (which is ALOT BTW) but, okay, um, as for this poem. i was surprised that you did change the formatting of the poem to this. actually, (not meaning to be offensive) but i actually don't like this format at all. i think it takes away from the poem. its really creative but its not really good for poems. maybe if you wrote a song it would work out, but for poems...um, lets just say it doesn't quiet work.(at least not for me) but, you really don't have to listen to me. its your style and whatever you want to do, feel free too (but you knew that, eh, love?);D but, other than that, its really good. i had to read it over a few times to sort of "decipher it" because i was really confused at first. but, other than that, GREAT. and, thanks for all your great awesomness reviews! i loved them all! i appreciate them. well, keep writing forever and always and TTYL! byerz! and, btw, i love the title! its clever. well, ttyl!

luv ya always and forever darling,~Davida

It IS Bitter and twisted and hey full of angst, but it's glamourous and original. The style is unusual. It doesnt make much sense but at the same time I understand it perfectly. Its hard but soft, light but tainting. I really like it and it's contradicting which of course I adore. The elements within the construct are charred but I can see how you wanted it to blend- and it does, suprisingly well. Keep it up Plinks...Lots of Love, Your battering Ram x

Oh dear, oh dear, you were bitter when you wrote this, eh?

WOW.

Woomf. (I like that word.) I don't know what it means, but thats what popped into my head after reading this. Woomf.

LOVE the formatting differences, though it makes it just a tad hard to read, but that just adds to the whole 'confused and angry thoughts.'

Wow.

One of my favs that you've done, actually... will try to put on favs, but i think i've reached the limit...

This seems to have a lot of pent up anger in it, which gives it a harsher edge. Absolutely brilliant though.

nice.. good use of the bold and italic functions.. =D i think they helped to further enhance the mood of the poem and give it a certain "movement"...

shucks.. i deleted the thing off again.. lol.. why do i keep doing such things?

Whoo cool! I'm stunned by the intensity of emotions in this. Hmm, I think formatting is okay..just don't have TOO much of it.^^ That bit where there was a bracket at every end of a line was a little choppy, but hmm, I suppose it's okay here... I think a little less formatting would be nicer. But it's a GOOD JOB all the same, it's very understandable, love the ending.:) This poem is of GOOD quality okay! [I can't even write anymore...:'(] Keep it up!

Great poem! Very angsty and bitter and abstract. My favorite images: I loved Cold steel spoon, Cotton wool silences, baby books, (Alcoholic widower) and I also did like the formatting. Didn't really get the "I want to be hurt even if it's just to prove I can be" but that's all right. Good job! :)
