helter skelter

this one is all over the place. Why no punctuation? I get the distinct feeling this was written in a hurry with no thought to meter, content or line breaks.

"I will paint everything white to make room for the ghosts"

not bad

I agree that you aren't truly settled into your poem. At first I felt you were merely decorating your house. Then you finally got to the foundation. Maybe reverse the order of your first strophe and build from the feet up. Your second strophe is a totally different poem, and much lovelier in imagery. Keep the paint and maybe restructure your house a little more. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful!

Needs a little editing to cut out some excess verbiage, but what doesn't? It has a wonderful flow--lyrical, musical. Thanks for a great read!
