"Feeding the Fish" by: Amethyst

Title: Feeding the Fish
Author: Amethyst
Reviewed by: Arianne
"Feeding the Fish" is like one long flowing poem that you can so easily get lost in. Every line was beautifully written, full of mystery and angst. This poem/fic will keep you guessing and the end will not answer your questions completley. I read this 3 times and each time I figured something new about it. This is the perfect piece of writing, it's brilliant. It's not that long, yet is better than most novels. It expresses so much.. I want to thank the author for sharing her truly amazing gift. I give this a 10 out of 10, hands down one of the best.

'Feeding the Fish' is a stunning tear-jerker of a poem, and I give thanks
to the author for her amazing technique of combining beautiful, transitional
phrases and symbolism. The imagery is breathtaking. (ie. "the matress
slightly hollowed / like grass where deer bed down / i dream the pattern of
the pillow cases") The poem is a post-Requiem beauty, and the simple
act of feeding Mulder's fish is brought to life with love and realism through
Scully's angst-ridden mind. Who knew so much could come to mind while feeding
goldfish? Wonderful writing, and if I were so inclined to give this poem a
rating between 1-5, I would most definitely rate it a 5. :)
