Like the set up you chose to use, as down the dreams flow, as out the smoke does blow.

Creative structure and use of space to aid the story.

This is visually so interesting - my eye wants to read the shape like a letter of the alphabet.

Almost haiku-like in its brevity, yet still highly visual and evocative. The concrete aspect is just right, adding to the piece without overwhelming it. Very nice work.

Dreamy, Laurie.

Love the layout.

Structure is terrific, Laurie. Subject matter, dark, destructive and so cleverly presented.
