    Drew, I really enjoyed this poem, I liked the ideas you used and the different descriptions that were used throughout, however the one problem I had was the use of full stops, for some reason they disrupted my reading and lifted me from my trance after a few stanzas it was quite annoying as I had to re immerse myself in your writing, the poem itself was lovely to read I thought you wrote it very well, that was my only problem, well done to you =)

    Ok I love the rythym here, It's very strong and compliments the poem's overall feel. You used great discriptive adjectives, Which create a very vivid image of what you were trying to discribe. Maybe think of a different word then contrast, in the 5th stanza,because its sortof overkills the idea of "contrast" Other than that great work,you are very talented!

    Wow.......your incredible ive never read a poem more despcritive then that....like i really got a feeling for this poem and i really enjoyed reading it I did get kind of confused as where the whole thing switched from talking about the dancer and then to yourself but when i read it through a few more times i think i understood but amazing job i mean that

    her hips switched and shifted
    just as an ocean’s tide.
    waving up and down her figure.
    her movements matched perfectly

    that was brilliant and the way you described the snakes tounge as ever-curious was so interesting very nice poem

    if i could rate higher then a five i would!!

    Hm... this poem is nice and descriptive, but you really should capitalize and puntuate properly. it makes the poem look better. also, most of the sentances didn't make sense, kinda like they were all jumbled together; or at least the first stanza was poorly done. i thnk you could redo that. otherwise, i love the description of this poem.

    A beautifully described scene though out the poem. The images you conveyed were detailed enough to bring the poem to life. My favourite couple of lines were “her hips switched and shifted -
    just like an ocean’s tide.” Although most of the imagery was truly original, this particular one did it for me.
    I have no real suggestions other than in some places the poem lacked punctuation, then in others it had a sufficient amount. Also capitalising “I” could neaten it up a little.
    Lovely write, with amazing images. Thanks for sharing.

    Wow that was brilliant as always, i think this new point of view, its simplicity, and the story it tells combines to make it a really fine piece. Geez your getting alot of comments and votes these days aye. I can see why though.
