Critiquing and revision use similar skills, as revision involves self-critiquing. Therefore, to get better at revision, it’s necessary to critique other people and to read critiques other people give. Once you’re used to evaluating work that you have no preexisting emotional attachment to, it’s easier to look critically at your own work.

Soaring the SkiesClouds, take me into your arms let cold, take grip of my veins - giving me life that comes after death, Rebirth will make of me a crow. Not mynah nor peacock nor parrot nor gentle lovely snow white dove - For my thoughts shall always be as dark, as the dark coarse feathers of the crow. I shall live on the highest mountain on its highest coldest peak; Solitude there is what I shall find, and that is the food I seek. And someday, I shall fall down to earth come, fellow friends, rip me apart- For though mother Nature claims my flesh up in the cloudy skies sSoaring the Skies
Blank CanvasWhen I get to know somebody really wellBlank Canvas
I have to step back from time to time
And look very hard And thoroughly
Whether the picture I painted in my head
Is still matching the person in front of me.
So as time passes by, I have painted layer over layer.
And yet, the old ones keep shining through, Distracting from the new, changed image on top.
The solution to this is not to stop looking.
The solution is to get off the brush
And let the ones you love be
Blank canvases.

Don't tell me it's not fair, that's exactly what it is. So fair it's mediocre, and it's how I retain control.
ResistanceLook with reverence on the Icon, until suspicious looks subside. Whisper the truth in bunkers. Wait for honesty on the radio, only to shiver at the propaganda. Branded an enemy for wayward thoughts, resist all you like. This is The State. Until you walk down that long hall, blessing Big Brother, bullet in your brain, you will not know rest.Resistance
What's Her NameShe was conservative, bisexual, agnostic, pro-life. She wasWhat's Her Name
charming, distrustful, creative, and dull.
She taught me
we have too many names, but just one known only to ourselves. That name should be cradled in the deepest trench of the mind,
so none can twist the truth.
She was beautiful, dying slowly. So she decided to remove “agnostic” from her list of names. She fell asleep with the empty pill bottle, and wherever she went, she arrived fully herself. So only feel pity for me.
