I like the way the reader is set up for something unexpected. That is important for good poetry: something contrary to cliche. I think this poem does it by breaking the cliche. We don't normally think of a grown woman riding a bike over a child's playing space. Super poem. + Report this comment |  |

     i liked this, it was interesting. i liked the imagery portrayed in the first few lines, about the grown woman riding her bike. i also thought the format was interesting, although i had to read the poem a couple of times because of the lack of punctuation. + Report this comment |  |

yes, the lack of punctuation is confusing for most people. but its supposed to all be one thought, and i feel like when i use periods it disrupts that. in this poem i rely heavily on linebreaks for pauses as opposed to the more conventional comma + Report this comment |  |

     Interesting.
Seems like flash poetry, but I could be wrong.
I got this one more than your others so far.
Pretty good. + Report this comment |  |
