"Heavy Lifting" poem by TheDr4KE, Vailyn

Drake

Da Haiku

I like it! You were able to say in so little words something bout loss and parting. Very kewl.

Da Riddle

Only eight lines, but I can see two people having sex and the notion of how the act w/o emotions is "worthless". How the relationship was a great memory until it ended and then it became one of pain. Heh! I am personally a very wordy writer. So it is always interesting to see someone give meaning w/ less than more.

Vailyn--

I like the cadence and sounds in your poem. I thought is was heavy on the drama in the tone of it, but perhaps that's just my personal bent.

Thanks for the read.

Succinct. Chilliing metaphor. Works for me.

Thanks for the read.

re the Riddle

I was playing with the riddle form used by Tolkien in the Hobbit, and of course it's a fairly generic riddle structure. But I wanted to make it a bit more adult too :) The answer of course is Heart, the last word is the biggest hint of all.

I will have to try a longer poem soon, but I do enjoy the concise forms a lot :)

Yup! Suppose to be highly dramatic. Like vivid flashes of a memory or nightmare you never ever want to remember.

You know what's funny? When I made up the title, which outside of the contest is simply Monster's Face, I used it because of what I wrote towards the end of the poem. I didn't think it had a real connection. Then I went and reread my poem after a day passed and realized that my subconscious knew what it was doing.

Made me feel good! LOL
