If it was good poetry aout death for example linking it with sex or birth or something a lot more unexpected I would be mildly imressed.

But dark angst blackness soaked crap really drives me up the wall.

I think that the mods should allow what known as justified critique

these fall into 2 catagories

1) I don't like it. This is an honnest personal statement but it's a little weak.

I don't like it because and then reference the poem in to illustrate your dislikes is a lot more mature an approach.

2) attack the poem directly invloves statements such as

I think this piece is derivative of
I think line/stanza (number) fails because
I think the symbolism is laboured/too subtle
i think it lacks punch/is too direct

These sort of questions are all justified critiques. If I posted part of my mind numbing crap on there I'd expect a lot of justified assualt from this sort of question

There seems to be a sort of primary school 'isn't everyone a special little flower' type mentality which is bollocks. Some people can write some can't. I can howerver critique and if you can't either accept my criticism and use it or take my opinion to task without resorting to whining to mods or calling me god knows what, then you shouldn't be posting your crap on these pages anyway.
