Like The Ocean

i havent wrote ne thing in here for a while so heres something i wrote earlier this week, lemme know what yall think

just like footprints in sand
this is my footprint from hand
the trail can only be earsed when the tide comes in
and the water covers the origins without a trace
now tossing and changing in the tide
rearranging like how i feel inside
always changing with problems like rocks or sharks
in the water they can knock me around out of order
pounding me down and buried beneith the sand and shells
as if shot heavily with a shot gun guage 12
tho like a hermit crab as i grow i change shells
ive learned if theres baracudas around
take off ur shine or get taken down
like a plane in the bermuda triangle disappearing forever
try every angle cause if strangled
escape is never i actually find myself quite' clever

lemme know what yall think

dude, i got no idea what you were trying to say with that piece but i thought it was dope. Everything is mixed up and rhyme scheme is messed up but you got some clever lines in there man...keep it up.

I liked these lines :

"the trail can only be earsed when the tide comes in
and the water covers the origins without a trace
now tossing and changing in the tide
rearranging like how i feel inside"

also -

"as if shot heavily with a shot gun guage 12
tho like a hermit crab as i grow i change shells
ive learned if theres baracudas around
take off ur shine or get taken down"

interesting piece, i like. Definately enjoyed the metaphors and message, did notice the rhyming pattern seemed a little erratic , but nothing that really distracted from the message.

to me i have a hard time understanding where your coming from..its like your thoughts are flowing out of your head faster than you can put them together, you have a high potential to write some amazing shit, instead of trying to have some intellectual words come spewing out of your head and writing them down quick, write from whats in your heart you cant go wrong, write whats exactly on your mind, a writers vocabulary can be only a few words, if they write from the heart, people still feel it, just write from the heart.....but you did have some kick ass metaphors..just to try to piece it together a little bit better

favorite line
tho like a hermit crab as i grow i change shells

I think you were thinking too much when you wrote this piece, I've definitely read better from you. It started out pretty interesting, the first 4 lines grabbed my attention but then I just didn't have a clue what you were trying to express, think less and maybe your true expressions will be portrayed more clearly (as in your other poetry).

P.S. I hope you don't take offence to this post, its meant in a totally inoffensive way.
