I'd like to nominate Michelle's All the Wile currently posted in Herme's Homilies for critique. I enjoyed the fresh subject, word choices and form very much and would like to see this one achieve a wider audience.
Cheers ~Cleo  All the Wile by Michelle By day they masquerade in saccharine smiles while feigning pleasantries. With practiced guile they plant their schemes and brazenly parade in saccharine smiles. By day, they masquerade. When sunlight rests, those imps and fiends convene unmasked, to dance a dervish round their Queen Malevolence. They act on her behest, those imps-- and fiends convene when sunlight rests. With spouting sparks they sharpen trident spears to prod when whispers fail to hold an ear. Licentious prater permeates the dark. They sharpen trident spears with spouting sparks. Before I knew the sun, I romped at night by firelight. Then, privy to their rites, my shriveled heart was black yet weighed a ton; I romped at night before I knew the sun. Beware of covert brotherhoods and pacts, of accusations made without the facts. The average person dozes unaware of covert brotherhoods and pacts. Beware! ·······  ·······"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to." ~ J.R.R Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings
Collaboration feeds innovation. In the spirit of workshopping, please revisit those threads you've critiqued to see if the author has incorporated your ideas, or requests further feedback from you. In addition, reciprocate with those who've responded to you in kind.
