I love the entire concept and construction of this poem! I must say that my favorite lines are “as you Marie Kondo this blue sweep of lake: / keeping it, keeping the joy that it sparks.” Every image is clear and beautiful and perfectly detailed!

I really love how you interpreted the prompt, and how it tied into that last line. One of my favorite poems I’ve seen about quarantine!

I don’t know how to word it, but you’ve evoked such a strong and clear emotion in me. Truly the mark of a well-written poem!

I love how you’ve taken a familiar piece and made it your own! The rhythm works so well, and I think you have the perfect mix of Poe’s inspiration and your own creativity and narrative!

Such a great poem!

So much from so little. I really love this <3

Your translation is so good, I feel like it should be a song. The sadness of it is really well expressed.

What a fantastic poem! So much depth and emotion from the image, and you’ve kept it’s visual elements and elevated them.

I think you portrayed this topic beautifully. You covered so many facets of progress and expressed them in a new light, and all so succinctly! Very impressive.

I really like this composition! The way you sprinkle small details like the crunch bar into the broader plot really gives a personal feel and investment in the story.

I love this so much. The simplicity of just adding one voice at a time to build something greater…
It’s so wonderful and empowering.

What a lovely haiku! It evokes such a peaceful and pleasant feeling of waking 🙂

This is just gorgeous. I love the lines, “Weaving words into a sail. / Rafting on a perfect read.” Your imagery is amazing!
