Vitruvian Sin Comments

Rating: 4.9

I feel the air with a kind of tension
I stare at you standing close to the window
Smoking your cigarette in a peaceful way
Distant look in your eyes

Are you sure you never wrote before? You're good, girl. And I'm glad you discovered your gift. I was enthrawled in this one. I couln't stop reading and I just had to get to the end. I sort of got the feeling that the character was dancing between fantasy and reality....what she wanted to be versus what really was. Was I wrong on that? Anyway, great write.

There is a lovely sense of play and good humour in this poem - your beloved's nose seems to come to the rescue, when you are about to drown in his eyes! In fact the poem's strength is the way it dances between two poles, between keen observation and surrender. I love it. Thank you - John.

I'm with Jerry on this. There are signs of maturity beyond your claimed 23 years in this and the english is very impressive with the exception of a couple of small slips which may simply be typos.. And yeah, I wonder who you might be too - that's the problem with this site: so many pseudonyms in use that it's easy to lose track of who's who. Are you me? Are you from eastern Europe even? Are you the personification of my poemhunter paranoia? Whatever, this has a lot of strong qualities - like Leonardo's drawing - and holds the reader's attention very effectively from beginning to end, with the first dozen lines or so in particular standing out. The number of comments you've amassed here already show that this has been a success for you. This style seems to suit you very well and would be worth developing. Well done again. The very best to you. xx jim. PS Good title!

I'm not going to lie. That was THE best love poem I have ever read. The way you describe the person is soothing and it would make you day dream but then you couldn't read the rest! I loved this poem! That was very much worth my time and should be to anyone else. Wonderful ! ! {+} Simon Cowell might even say he loved it but you know how hard he is to please. Loved It!

Ananda! this is incredible. oh my god. I can't begin to tell you how I felt while reading this. you have a beautiful way with words. and such feeling. I read someone commented on this one saying 'you could go deeper.' i don't agree. your style is simple, deep, and leaves so much to the imagination. keep your style and NEVER sell out. again this was moving in more ways then one. truly breath taking.

Ananda, Notwithstanding the praise above (which is well deserved) you can go further. There is a lot of narrative in the poem, which keeps it grounded, almost like a film noire. Push the language further, go on, because I know you can!
