"At the start of a book it seems to be completely free and frighteningly open. Then you invent problems, and there are patches in the middle when it can be quite horrible. You wonder why you ever started."

enigmia commented on the poem titled Blue Ocean by Jack
Well, this is certainly beautiful. Amazing imagery and interesting use of vocabulary. The only critique I might have is that I thought it could use a few more commas.

enigmia commented on the poem titled Trivial Revelations -- Poem by tjwell01
I don't fully get what's happening here, but I enjoyed going along with the feeling of it all. The imagery, the flow, the rhythm, the vocabulary - all pleasantly captured me, hampered only by the...
enigmia commented on the poem titled TeddyBear Monster by LyraMidnight28
I certainly got that the writer is in pain, but I felt like the lines ebbed and flowed with their descriptiveness, falling somewhat flat at times in a piece that is clearly coming from an emotional...
enigmia commented on the song titled I Hope You Hate Me by wstone1994
I think this is pretty good, and agree with flickeringfairy that without hearing it, some lines seem a bit stuffed for the rhythm presented.

I would really enjoy hearing this song. I very much enjoyed reading it.

In the second paragraph, the narrator says he knows where the item is, but in the next, he states that he doesn't know where his legs are taking him. As there's no indication in the rest of the...
enigmia commented on the story titled Adam & Eve by Jack
Interesting. I was particularly taken by the use of the snake beneath the tree analogy, given that I thought the creatures now being placed are Adam and Eve. Unless Ra'zuk is prophetic, I am...
enigmia commented on the poem titled To My True Love... by Routh
I really like how simple and true this feels. It emanates more love, in my opinion, than a good deal of the more "flowery" love poetry.

enigmia commented on the poem titled My Heart by Connies Poems
This was nice to give multiple reads to.
The stanza, "The journey of your soul is A breath of fresh air...", though fitting in the flow, threw me a bit in how its meaning fit within the rest...
