Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

Rating of the poem Computers Slowly Doing My Head In by duchessofdrumborg

Ah Duchess

Brilliant words - very clever use of typos! ("whatdayamean, what typos!")
It is strange that floppy dicks were substantially bigger than the stiffies which followed them. Too technical for me.

Age is a privilege, but it comes at a price. I often wonder what my father - long gone - would make of the modern world. I recall reading about a Polish man who was in a comma for 15 years from the mid-80's to 2000 and his observation was that the world was fantastically louder than he remembered. In my father's day a 'phone call was a rare and private affair - but these days people shout out their news, hands-free in the middle of the shopping centre.

Again, this is a great, witty and, in its own way, insightful piece.
I wish you well with your continued writing
cheers

Rating of the story Aye, There's the Rub by humpwhistle

I like the fact that you described it as an Eating disorder too :) As a lay reader, I find some of the humor a bit forced ( Sleep Lab being a dog breed). Also the business of waking up in a plate gets a bit repetitive. Simply stated, in my opinion, the piece could do with a little more editing. Nevertheless I enjoyed reading it :)

Rating of the poem A Smile ... (sweet 'n sour tale) by Richard J

Good to read from you. I am away with life and options to it at the moment. Popped in for a while.
Anything with cats take my attention. Lyrically sound, you give him life.
Nicely done.
My best wishes.

Rating of the poem Murphy by Aussie

What a great story etched in reality and valour. Emotionally charged, it pulls at heartstrings of the humble.
