Poetic Silent Treatment

Left a comment on her poetry site, a rating good and criticism light; other readers had messaged there, most praiseworthy, which was fair; and she answered, nearly them all, but to my note she let silence fall; why this treatment, I couldn’t tell, at least some reply like “Go to hell.” Inspired by the feeling I get when I leave a comment or two, or perhaps even a bolder message rather than noting something for everyone to see, and all you get is stone silences, and you wonder if they read or saw it, surely they did, or if they didn't like it or if they didn't like your face. I'd rather get a sharp rebuke than silence.
