I love the idea of being a citizen of the world and the way the poem gives it a visual connection. Nicely written.

Love it! It has everything, the classic going fishing scene plus a mermaid, a hero suck monster and an environmentalist message.

Brilliant cautionary tale to get kids to feed their pets. I like the dialogue between the grandpa, mom and kids too. Feels like a real family and a real grandpa telling a tall tale and never seems unnatural, cliche, or boring - not easy to do. Thanks for a great story.

I like the tie-in of the rumpled little bird and the memory of lawyers waiting at the lunch counter.

Review of The Empty Summer  Open in new Window.

I feel the longing for connection and the sense of loss - no hope, thrills, warming glow; yet also the sense that next time will be different. Very nice final couplet addressing a loved one.

I love the line “God’s green panties, he was a drama queen.” Thank goodness for the part of the subconscious mind inventive curses are born from. Fun story.

Review of Her First Time  Open in new Window.
Review by ChristineB Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Thanks for this short story!
I had a bad tooth pulled 10 years ago after it had been aching terribly. The dentist was a very elderly man whom I had never seen before- I hadn’t been seeing a dentist routinely when this happened. He couldn’t identify which tooth was bad until I told him. It was the first and only time in my life I had nitrous oxide, and strangely it hurt less than I expected it to.
Your story reminds me of that day, which is somehow very clear 10 years later when other things aren’t. It captures the dread of the dentist perfectly.

“It was a collection of moments containing memories but no promises”
That’s my view of life too. This is a beautiful poem.
