Question: If you're interested, comment on my poem!?
Ripe with anger
Ripe with hate
Ripe with sorrow
That won't abate

Ripe with anguish
Ripe with scorn
My deepest fear
To die forlorn

Ripe with madness
Tainted guilt
Last dram of innocence
Forever spilt

Maturing fruit
Of evil begot
Shall fall to earth
And slowly rot

Truthfully I don't like repetition of the word ripe even though the poem has meaning I think there is a better way of expressing your feelings with more clarified meaning!. Ripe only goes with the fruit but what else seems to be lost!. Look at it and try again!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, I think my comments depend on what you want in the line of commentary!. Hopefully, you're looking for constructive comments, so that's what I'll try to give you!. I think that it's obviously an emotional subject for you, but the reader doesn't know what the poem is actually about!. We only know that you're angry and hurt about something, not what it actually is!. Clarify what's going on and the poem will be stronger!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is very emotionally powerful, and enigmatic in that the story behind the feeling is only to be surmised!. It can be interpreted on different levels!. Probably because of my own background, it speaks to me of child abuse and the loss of innocence and lasting damage that it causes!. But, as I said, it can be read many ways!. Strong and effective writing here!. Thank you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well I sure know what this is about! Just remember,

In the rotting fruit, a seed is found by some fowl, or a bear
Who will take it to a distant place
Deposit it, along with s(h)it
In a glen or meadow fair!.
And there it lies quiescent, with aromas quite putrescent
Until it blooms so pleasant
And so you shall move on to your next heartbreak affair!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

it seems like there is a lot of tormented feelings going on here i hope this isnt how you really feel although this is really great you know they say the best work comes along with the worst but like it said this was hot keep your head upWww@QuestionHome@Com

Wow those words do rhyme but the mental pain to write
the verse is dramatic in your addressing your mental state!!!

I hope you are feeling better now!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well penned with strong flow!. For as many times as you used ripe, it still works!. And this gives room for thought!. My compliments!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
