    Hi! I haven't read your stuff in way too long - I had to revisit some. I read part 3 of this little narrative first... and I have to say, I was a bit confused ; ). Your grasp of vocabulary is obviously very refined, especially for our generation, but I felt at first that it was still too... melodramatically verbose.

    That was, of course, until I realized that you were supposed to be writing like Poe : D. Makes a LOT more sense that way.

    I like how you opened up this piece - a very dense meditation on one particular object. I have the sense, too, that it's not just done wantonly - you always have purpose in your descriptions. Maybe I'll have to read the rest, and then leave another comment, eh?

    I hope school doesn't hold you for too long! I miss your poetry...
