  • on Sympathy by Muhammed Iqbal, on June 12, 2005
    I thought this peom, to be honest, was inhibitted completely by a utter lack of flow. Repeating the same word and calling that a rhyme scheme is off. That utter simplicity affirms the sheer simplicity fo this poem. It is bordering on puerile. Then again, it is a translation, and subject to the interpretor's will. I did not like this poem.

  • on On the Future of Poetry by Henry Austin Dobson, on May 11, 2005
    This is spectacular. For a little while I thought someone on allpoety wrote this. This is truly graeat with a great rhyme scheme and a great theme. It is true that the best theme is life.

  • on A Ballade Of Pipes by Alexander Anderson, on March 11, 2005
    This is organized like a lot of Anderson's work. It has the recurring rhyme scheme, ABAB, organized in pentameter meter. It has the recurring last line of the stanza in every stanza, and an envoi at the end. I am unfamiliar with the name of a piece organized like this, but that seems to matter little. It is a very good piece.

  • on A Ballade Of "ChurchWardens" by Alexander Anderson, on March 11, 2005
    This is a brillaint piece, as the rhyme scheme is recurrent. The y ending twangs off the tongue, drawing sort of a low enunciation of the y. Atleast that was the way I read it. When I first read it, I actually paid more attention to the sound I made when I said awry and eye. It is a very good piece.
