A Spoon
#6
A really neat theme for a poem... some cool lines to think about. I like how you're objectively describing parts of a body and not a whole person.

A few comments:

---Just wondering if you'd consider formatting it in more of a poem style- splitting up some lines, etc. It reads like prose. Nothing wrong with that, just a suggestion.

---Huge fan of the last line, it leaves the reader hanging.

---There are a few lines that employ some rather large, un-poetic words that tripped me up. Your writing is very visual, so when I came across the line "nihilated by your apathy," for example, it seemed out of place because it was not a visual concept, and I had to pause and struggle to figure out exactly what you meant by that.

Hope those notes help. Welcome Smile
