very sad. You summed up a life—a feeling in six words. I see nothing to change. It is perfect as it is. It is powerful and evokes feeling. SANDI

Life and art are intertwinted.

On creative life, this is pretty good.  I think it may be missing something, though.  Perhaps a different word for intertwined.  Maybe intertwined should be something like “reflections”.  

Not sure, though.

I really enjoyed this. I could see this expanded into a lengthy poem, or a story. Great Job.

The sadness and personal truth of this can be felt through each word.  It is however a feeling unfortunately shared by way too many people.

Oooh, I really like this one.  It’s clear in one it means, yet there’s a world of possibility behind the words. Nice job!

Truth?  Well, subjective truth perhaps.  Maybe objective.  I gave you a 9 for clarity.  This line really grabs my attention.  It would be a great opening line for a story.  I’m not sure it’s a fantastic memoir though.  Too much to do with the third person, daddy, and not enough about you.  You could focus it a bit more by making the last word about you.  Not me.  ’

The title, a bit profound.  Have you considered something else?  Childhood Lessons, or Early Lessons?  

I hope this is of some help, best of luck,

David

I don’t really like it… It feels like you just ripped off “For sale: baby shoes, never worn” not only in punctuation and structure, but also content. They could almost be continuations of each other. That may be a good thing for some people but I think it’s borderline plagiarism… It’s just not very original.

Good.  Reminds me of he loved wine, women, and song.
