Peer Review 1 – Abanoub Kaloush’s ‘Prose Soliloquy’

This is a beautiful piece, Abanoub! You clearly have a crafted control over the English language and you’re able to guide the reader through both colourful imagery and crushing allusions. The only thing I would point out is that, whilst this poem is indeed wonderfully written, the task asked for a ‘prose’ soliloquy. Nevertheless, this demonstrates brilliant use of renaissance vocabulary and metaphor. My favourite line would have to be: “I have found myself in some calamity between god and man”, it truly illustrates a disastrous, almost prophetic point of imbalance in this contemporary world. Keep up the awesome work! – Mariama
