Anyone interested in checking out my poetry?

Sarah, I think the content is imaginative and carefully considered - however, you have a tendency on many of the poems to re-use the same line-lengths and rhyming patterns (is that called pentameter? i'm not sure.) As a song lyricist i picked up on this easily and for me, it shows that you have concentrated on the content a little at the expense of the physical structure. do you know what i mean? i know you will work to change this and realise how important the technical aspects of your work are - quite simply, you are too good not to. keep doing what you do. it's not that often that poets get real recognition these days, but i think you have what it takes. i'd love to see you write fiction too; i think your perspectives would make for a unique kind of story telling.
