Critiquing Amanda Baran
"Rupert"
I like this poem, but I have one small problem: Is Rupert a dog that chewed up a book, but has now gone missing? I don't know, maybe I should read over it more carefully. The poem is very metaphoric and descriptive, but (to me) the metaphor is unclear. It's not necessarily the way she wrote it; I'm just not good at deciphering metaphors. I can tell you more when I decipher the metaphor.
I can't find her other poem; when I get a hold of it, I will edit this critique.
