Rejection by those who judge49 total reviews
Comment from hari anand
I have come up short in the eyes of those who judge, I we are our own better judge, I hate those who judge others to hide their own shortcomings.

The picture is exquisite, the colors are in tune with the theme and your words are precise and descriptive (I always have liked the phrase "scorched earth" and first heard it used in music by Joni Mitchell in her 'Turbulent Indigo composition). We don't walk the same path but you've expressed yourself with great fluency and a meticulous flow.

Hmm, a really interesting poem with such a dark feeling to it. I like how it has a brooding sense to it a s if the Elders are simply bored and waiting for you to fail. An excellent poem.

Ohhh. Eerie and mysterious in the delivery. I like it.
The sights:
"The Door to the Elders stands before me "
Odor bombards the senses with fragrance.
"Taking a whiff of the sulfur that surrounds the mountain sanctuary"
And the ears are startled with violent sound.
"Thunder Claps are heard "
I like the way you examine the different senses in your poem.

Your poem is well written and easy to comprehend, although I prefer upholding the light in order to see through the darkness, like a path through the cobweb of difficulties and disappointments. Like this phrase, "I catch a glimpse of success."Glimpse is a good word, it ministers faith that you can do it, you don't have to fail or feel rejected. We must all learn to rule our own lives and find our
destiny. You have a good talented to write, so keep it up.

An interesting read. Well-written. You do have a way of putting the words together that keep us focused. As for the dark side aspect - I'll visit it occasionally, but don't want to stay there.

Comment from justatuna
I had to give this one a 6. Very intense style of writing. Wasn't sure if it would by my style. It was, it was excellent. Flowed very well while painting a very somber picture. Excellent message as well. Great job.

Comment from Alexmi1984
That was a beautifully written dark, Gothic poem. I think that even in my wildest dreams, it might be almost impossible for me to write such a gem. Images, flow, reading easiness were the things that I enjoyed the most as I read your poem.
Great job!!
Alex :)
