Pet Peeve	I have horrible trouble with "s" 's & s'. Also, one of my pet peeves is the over use of "that" it is a meaningless word and in most cases the line is better off without it. Also, which is sometimes more appropriate but I don't remember when LOL. As Connie has said use as few "I's" as possible because 1) who else would it be? & 2) You want the reader to put themselves/..fes?? LOL in the poem.

Dreaming	Is the verse posted on the site? Is this the accurate layout? You could use a few commas and to remove a few commas. Sorry I'm not sure how to show you here? Also, take a pass at the verse without using the word "I"

i would like some honest feedback on this piece,	The bad seed wrote: ART IS DEAD MY FRIEND Whitewashed and derailed by modernism's vacuous hands that scream empty metaphors to cash rich sympathizers and con-ceptualists scamming our intellect, with their oh so profound egotistical postulating, about the nature of existence, and meaning of being. It's all smoke and mirrors. A three card trick, unsatisfying, unnourishing. greasy burgers for the soul. What would Van Gogh do, probably pluck out an eye, and sew an ear to his head? So, let's have a moment's silence, In this hour of grief, As I whisper, "art may you rest in peace." ART IS DEAD MY FRIEND ART IS DEAD Whitewashed and derailed, By modernism vacuous hand.
