The faciliators and attendees of writers guild gave me great insights as to how this piece felt , like a surrealist painting. I refined it punctually and added a bit more grounded language, as per the suggestions.

People found this piece funnier than I anticipated and were overall encouraging, even though I wasn’t sure how it would be received, so that was definitely reassuring!
I was very happy to attend a meeting of the Writers Guild and hear feedback for my piece. I was grateful to hear honest feedback from other writers on ways to improve my poem. I didn’t take every suggestion that was given but I did take most of them. The major changes were structural, making sure my punctuation and line breaks were consistent throughout the poem. I feel that what I submitted to the Orange Couch was a much more solid piece of writing than the first draft I had workshopped by fellow writers.
I submitted these poems as part of the final collection for my first poetry workshop class last quarter. Riley O. reviewed my work and their feedback was so generous and kind on an area of writing I was quite unfamiliar with. Initially, I was nervous to first share these poems but Riley made the process simple by offering genuine, reader-based marginal comments on each draft. As a result, some of my poems took new directions even I wasn’t expecting.

I received some lovely feedback from my peers on this piece. I was recommended to focus on the middle section of this piece, which was not nearly as developed as it is now! Hope you enjoy.
The feedback process was invaluable. To me, art (and writing, of course) are all about communicating something to other people. The feedback I received let me know what was coming through, intended or otherwise. Checking in with another person helps me hone the message that I’m conveying.
