** Image ID #1934576 Unavailable ** Hi ~ Aqua ~ I'm just dashing through with a review! Theme The theme for this poem is very dark - about being in an asylum. It's interesting because the usage of the word asylum, at least in the US, went out of fashion years ago. Now they are mental health facilities. Word Choice(s) The word choices in this are rich and deep, but also dark and fitting with the theme. It's also interesting to me that the 1st and 4th stanzas are almost mirrored - was this on purpose? There's some repetition in the lines about reality which may have been deliberate as well. I only point it out in case it wasn't - it's so hard to tell in poetry. Flow The flow of this is a jumbled, almost discordant rhythm, which fits well with the theme. It feels deliberately unsettling, rough, uncertain. It leaves this reader with an uneasy feeling. I enjoyed it despite the dark theme or maybe because of it. I couldn't find a thing to change, despite multiple readings. Very well done! Gotta run, but this was fun! Need a review? Submit a bitem link to "Invalid Item" Need something to review?
