34 yr. old female from Louisiana. Haven’t written in a while due to injuries from a car wreck but I hope to just push past it and add some more. In the mean time I’m gonna start reading and reading to motivate me. Thanks for reading my stuff and any and all reviews are appreciated.

Poetry / One Way Street
Version 6
1 Review   3 Comments
One Way Street       Time passes by like those nights Spent staring at the ceiling, Wishing I could stop MY heart from feeling. So here I go again, Back to an old friend… A dirty one way street. "Has anybody round here Seen or heard Blake’s Angels in the trees?" Through a cloud of smoke, An old man said to me, "Darlin if that’s what you’re lookin for This ain’t the place to be". Outside the cold wind blows And everybody d...

Poetry / The Pardon
Version 2

 The Pardon      As I look beyond the bars they have made for me, I wonder what it's like, On the outside.    What would I do, If I were to make myself free?    Could those who keep me here bring me back?    Once free from my cell, Would I become enlightened, As my eyes adjusted to the world outside my cell?   Would I create things Of beauty or of the intellect?    Or in my freedom, Would I become a madman, Causing only confusio...

Before you come any closer, stranger, There are a few things that I must say. The world surrounds me with its pain... I see the anger I hear the cries. Predator and Prey. And which one am I? I am Predator. A rabid cur, staring at the moon. If you could see inside, poor stranger, Then you would know the danger. Inside of me dwells murder. But still... Let me go a little further. I am Prey as well, For inside, love also dwells. In my heart, there is trust. You may come now closer, stranger, If ...

Humor/Satire / Paper Towels
For a high school essay, its pretty darn good. You should rewrite it usingthe point of view you have now, as you look back at what was ridiculous or absurd (just a suggestion). I just wish that formatting had come out properly, as I think much of the humor/wit was lost. I have trouble with this at times also; I would recommend trying to double space where a new paragraph begins. I would love to reread it if you could get the formatting worked out. keep writing and good luck
Humor/Satire / customer feedback
Bravo Jane Smith!! Very well put and I couldn't agree with you more on the majority of what you have written. Also, I love dry humor and wit, which you are very skilled at expressing. I think the shortened sleeves and pant's legs was my favorite. You brought your point across the spectrum with your anecdote about your sister(I am a size 0-1 and I can't pull those looks off to save my life). On behalf of women all over, I hope you actually send this letter out to clothiers!! Very well written....
I like the subject matter...could have learned a bit from this in my youth. I also like the rythm, for some reason I hear Johnny Cash's deep soulfull voice singing this. However, I don't like this(I'm not sure if its grammatically incorrect or if it just fit the sound): "As the jails are full of stories And the graveyards are too..." It sounds a lot better to me this way : All the jails are full of stories And the graveyards are too..." Otherwise, i truely dig it and i am a huge music/lyrics ...
