  • on Ode To A Naked Beauty by Pablo Neruda, on June 15, 2005
    Not the usual love poem. I really enjoyed this. You avoided the usual love poem cliches. I really liked the loose form, it's rhythmic and it flows very nicely. Great job. The last line made me tear up a little bit.

  • on After Auschwitz by Anne Sexton, on March 17, 2005
    Man is a bird full of mud... The possibility to fly, but weighted down by what? Humanity itself?

  • on The sage lectured brilliantly by Stephen Maria Crane, on February 20, 2005
    I believe that this poem is about the duality in us all; even the wisest sage can have some devilish tendencies. We all have a capacity for both good an evil, and the sage is far wiser than his students in that he sees that the pictures are one and the same, for within each human is both the devil and the sage.

  • on From: War Is Kind by Stephen Maria Crane, on February 20, 2005
    Bitter irony. My favorite poetic satire. I was first introduced to this poem in the eighth grade and it's haunted me ever since.
