I really liked the last one except for the final five lines; it was pretty interesting at the beginning and sort of fell apart at the end, when subtlety and imagery gave way to blatant statement.
I generally don't critique things, as I have too much editorial gene and no tact, but I admired that one enough that the ending bugged me -- I thought the poem as a whole was good, and it could be better with a little tweaking.
Critique, since you ask
