Hi Dragon Skulls,
If you just heard something that sounded rather like thunder, it was me standing up and applauding your gem of a poem.
Thank you for speaking your mind and for doing it so eloquently. This is a powerful and exceptional six star crown. You write with lots of talent. The meter and rhymes were perfect throughout. Thanks for exploring this subject. I couldn't agree more with your thoughts.
No bloopers that I could see.
My very best wishes for you in the contest.
Warm regards, W ^-^

Thank you so much for the kind review and the big sixer, W. I couldn't resist, lol. When the contest came up this was the first thing that popped in my head so I just went with it. I dearly appreciate the gracious rating, W. I'm humbled. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again. /Ron

Hello there
I have one six left and I kept it for this - great writing.
As I have mentioned elsewhere, your creative use of a contemporary word store is commendable.
My one reservation is that you might have little use for this work outside of FS.
I can only suggest that you have a crack at another: you certainly have the creative talent.
I wish you well with your writing. This is excellent.
cheers

Thank you for the excellent review and the big sixer, Phill. Yeah, I know this silly thing won't mean anything anywhere else but on here. I really did it more to challenge myself. To see if I could pull off a rant of this magnitude, lol. I drive a truck and have a lot of time to think. Nothing I do on this site rarely gets past the FS pages anyhow. I really appreciate the generous rating, friend. I'm humbled. I'm glad you liked it. Glad to see your in the lead. Have a good one, P. /Ron

Very powerful piece. I can only say that I'm new to the space and the point was well taken. Amidst your aforementioned concerns I hope to still find inspiration. Again, a very impressive piece.

Thank you for the excellent review, AR. I really appreciate the generous stars. Yeah, I just gripe once in a while but it's a great place to learn. I could never have written a multi layered ranting sonnet without the guidance of what I've learned on here, lol. I've been on here for 5 years and love it. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thanks again. /Ron

You bring writers, poets and reviewers to task, plus ask some thought-proking questions. This is very well written with an interesting word.

Comment from seren james
I really enjoyed reading your rant Dragonskulls. It is some fete writing a sonnet like this. This is all about our system that exists here that no one likes. But there is no hope of changing unless someone comes with a better idea.

Comment from irishauthorme
A great rant, and many truths revealed. Your work is exceptional, well-crafted and with a cutting edge like a dagger. In my own humble observations, many posts are recognized, then promoted to that All Time Best rating by the friends of the incompetent, and many contests are won by the same bumbler who has 100 plus fans following along.
Which is the reason I do not enter any contests here on FS.
I hope that I am in time for this one, and good luck to you, my friend!

Thank you for the excellent review and the big sixer, irish author. Yeah, I usually stick to the 'blind' contests on here because of the friends voting for friends crap. In the blind contests it's a little harder for them to pull it off, lol. I really appreciate the generous rating, friend. I'm humbled. You're still in time for this contest. It'll be in your voting booth for the next 3 days. There's some great entries. Thank you again, irish. Have a great New Year. /Ron
Comment from Treischel
I have no six stars for which to give, before my eyes such beauty did long live, I cannot conceive much better poetry, unless, of course, it comes from lowly me. The truth of it was oh so wisely told, you're so worthy of those points and, yes, the gold!

It really was very impressive and so very close to the truth.
Comment from Fandoodle
I would change your first line as it doesn't sound right. If might I speak my mind the truth be told. If I might speak my mind sounds better. Just a simple twisting of two words. I hear your thoughts loud and clear in your poem and agree. Well written. Thanks for sharing it.

Comment from Benjamin Valencia
Wow..Hello Dragonskulls. You're my new hero! I can't believe how well you captured the silent thoughts that course through me everytime i'm on this website. I so much enjoy reading everyones ideas. Your ideas really hit a homerun only because of the profound nature over the way people review and judge. I had to laugh out loud in excitement over someone else thinking that someones child is doing the reviewing for mom..heh heh..Good luck and take care Dragon Skulls. Have a great new year. Cheers.

I'm glad you had a chuckle at this thing. Thank you again. /Ron
