At 8:50pm on July 14, 2008, Grace Messina said…: Charan, You've written such a powerful, thought-provoking piece. It's brutally honest and that's what I love about it. You've also managed to work in so many vivid shots- so vivid that I can't easily forget them...Thank you.

At 7:19pm on July 13, 2008, Rachel Knaizer said…: There is something so uniquely visceral in your first piece, with this astounding word play.

At 6:44pm on July 13, 2008, Liz S. said…: Thanks for your comment, Charan. I think you know already that I admire and love your piece for much the same reason you love mine: because of the power of its raw honesty. So thank you for being willing to be vulnerable as well! I wish I could have seen you perform on Thursday, but because I hadn't known about it, I had already made plans...Hope it went great, and that at least a couple of our writing buddies were able to be there!

I already told you that I love your work and appreciate the gift that you have. Although this is a poem it is also a life story...a powerful narrative...a political piece...a social commentary. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

This works incredibly well. I feel humbled, being asked to give you feedback. I clearly have none. Let me know when you're performing next--I'll be there!

At 2:10pm on July 10, 2008, Karen said…: Wow! I am breathless, your words are so powerful, so beautifully crafted, the images are so strong, and the rhythm. You inspire me want to write more poetry, and yet I feel as though I can only fall short. Thanks for sharing it.
