It depends on the artist and their confidence level (my confidence with poetry is low so I am probably a little more malleable at the moment). I think your advice was great, not harsh, and I appreciate your honesty. I still like the first poem better, and still have it in writing (and in me) so it really change or die . I think I've just written two completely different poems with the same general theme. Truly, thanks for your honest crit, I knew you were coming from a good place and it helped rather than hurt me.
