"What is "A signaling process based on binary code." (EAM) That's the only line in this one that I didn't understand. I thought binary code was used to calculate the geomitary of the positioning, who were they signalling to? I've been looking forward to reading this one because I fins Stonehenge facinating. I really should learn more about it. 8/10" -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"One of your best so far. 7/10" -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"Have you read anything by Jewel Kiltcher? I think the lady is unbelieveably talented. This reminds me in a way of her work She's an Alaskan poet and songwriter/singer. It was the verse that reminded me of a cup of coffes (Riches, Bitterness, Sweetness)that did it. I could imagine these as lyrics to one of her songs. What does bwiti mean, is it a name? It's not a word I've heard before and it measns nothing to me. I like learning new things." -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"Bwiti is a religion practiced in western Africa. It is centered around the religious figure of Bwiti. The people (Pigmies and others) use a psychoactive plant containing ibogaine in their religious ritual. Thank you for the kind words!" -- David Soriano, Bradford, Pa., U.S.A..
"Isn't it human nature to want something for nothing? People don't think that by taking without paying they are robbing people of their living, eventually that person may be out of work and kept by the state and who pays the state ... we do. But I bet there's not a person over the age of ten alive who hasn't copied a CD or taped a Tape. (Well apart from the very old of course)Interesting and thought provoking, but will it be enough to stop me in my tracks next time I ask a friend if I can borrow a CD to copy? .. I shouldn't think so. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"At first I thought this was relating to the advent of the cyber age bringing about change in your life, but then you changed tactic and the poem took on a travelling feel which to me seemed to signify changes in 'you' I didn't completely understand this one and that annoys me. I want to read poetry and know exactly where the writier is coming from. I like the thought that a long road has many changes. One minute it might be urban, then rural it may run by the sea for a while and end up in the mountains. I think what you were trying to say is that life's like that. That you road lies ahead and the only way you are going vto alter it's inevitablity is by making detour and travelling on different roads. Please correct me if I@m wrong because I want to understand it. 7/10" -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.

"I didn't htink this was as good as the last two I've read, but I love the image of the layers of mirrored reflections. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"Not your average poem. Needs to be studied. Even so, well written." -- Hero.
"The words used in this give a whole magical feel to the piece. My son (10) is reading the hobbit at the moment and is just getting into fantasy and 'other' beings. I wish this had been set at a younger age group because I'd love for my son to read this, but I know he won't make much sense of it. It's a shame because the phraseology is beautiful. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"This is one that makes you think, personally I think he favours schtizophrenics for devine visitation. Didn't like this as much as the last one I read, but still good stuff. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"I like this because he 'speaks' in such technical terms that it's almost a mechanical love poem. He obviously has such respect for her mind, that he speaks to her on an intelectual level. I hate mushy love poems with eye gazing and endless compliments as to her endless beauty. This one is refreshingly different. No one would ever call me beautiful without lying through their teeth, but if someone ever saw fit to write me something like this I'd be overjoyed. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"This is a little bit confusing because in the begining you have A strange and disturbing voice. Later it becomes 'My' voice and it's clear that the voice is the voice of nerosis. or at least I hope it is the psychosis voice in someone's head that's how I interpreted it. The last line is the most sinister. The voice in his head is laughing at him. If you change the 'And' at the begining to 'My' and re read I think the whole piece takes on a much more menacing tone. He knows he has a 'strange and disturbing voice' after all he's bragging about it, but he does nothing to make it less strange and disturbing. He's enjoying tormenting the poor bloke whose head he is living in. And the 'MY' gives him a distinct and seperate personality as you've used later on. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
"Hello David, I almost didn't comment on any more pieces of your poetry because Poetry is not my first love and I'm not passionate about it, but sod it, I'm not going to stop reading or reviewing because of one nasty person. If you are yet another facet of that one personality, then the jokes on me again, but then I'm reading the writing not the author so it doesn't really matter. If the authors don't want me to comment then they can tell me so. Unless I really like something very much though (7+) I'm not going to vote because I always try to be fair and in all honesty it would be very rare for me to vote a piece of poetry as high as a short story. I have two comments on this one a compliment. My favorite line of this is "No time like the past" nice play on words. What is equally good is "In walking distance, the nick of time" in fact I think that's lovely, but a little confusing, because the pattern of the poem demands that it is displayed over two lines. If it read Within walking distance the nick of time. it would be more clear and less likely be read as two unrelated statements. Recollection and premonitions are two long words, 'A penny for your thoughts' is a longer line than walking distance, if you add a word before the walking I think it helps with the appearence. " -- Sooz, Dalton, England, Cumbria.
