I don't think your work is at all monotonous, and I understand writing along darker themes because it's how I maintain the semblance of sanity I possess ;) As for getting more views, thumbnails and images help (in my opinion) & you are doing that - but really, just post something everyday (it gets your name more visible and familiar I think) and when you comment on the work of others, try to have something truthful and insightful to say (so says I, who sometimes writes bizzare comments and sometimes mundane ones). And, have a lil patience. I think one tends to get more views than comments - but, you'll build an audience. :)

I really like these lines: "The color of love is the one I wear best,/When wrapped in nothing but myself." Good stuff.

I agree that there is nothing mundane about your poems so far. Nicely descriptive. I love the line The addiction to their affection sweet, This is something I have a great addiction to, the sweetness of affection. Excellent keep posting ;0)

First, wonderful written piece. Second, "I was curious if anyone knew more effective ways to get other people to look at my gallery, it seems I draw no attention." -- "If you write it, they will come". -- If you want ideas on how to 'not' get more views, just refer to my uploads. WINK. "Patience is a virtue" (Or so I've been told - WINK 2). Write on.
