How do I judge?
What's in another's heart,
mind, soul?
My thoughts are mere
chicken scratches
compared to how you
feel.. inside,
you.

How can I rate?
What you've learned from,
life, death?
I have my own dreams
choices, regrets,
they are what makes me
feel...inside,
me.

It's so hard to review.... thats what really got me when i first joined WC... I was kind of like you... how can I judge someone's writing? But I know that when I read something and it reminds me of a story... I'll share it lol... and it's critisizm just make it constructive... for instance if something doesn't flow right in the poem or if there is a typo or something like that... Great write!

I think reviews are beneficial because it's a second set of objective eyes looking at a piece of literature. No matter how personal the writing is, someone else is going to read it if placed on a public website like this. That being the case, the writer has to be at least a little interested in getting read. Reviews, I believe, inform writers what works and does not work about their writing. It helps them to produce more concise and effective literature.

Thank you, by the way, for taking the time to review my poem. I do truly appreciate it.

The points and ratings are, however, just plain silly. There's no way to "rank" or "rate" writing. There is no scale for it aside from popularity, and popularity has only brought us such gems as reality TV.

"How can do I judge?" I think you have an extra 'can' in there.

I like the rhyme, the way the words dance down the page. The structure aids the words.

I like the round-- feel inside you/feel in side me. Nice device.
