Poor Tom [ASR] There's nothing in the dark that isn't there in the light, or is there? |
Hello Words Whirling 'Round, I am reviewing this story/poem for the following contest: "Monsters Under The Bed - CLOSED" by Lilith of House Martell Prompt: "The North Wind Doth Blow" 1. Keep "poor thing" in the second line of your poem. 2. Maintain the Syllable count: 10, 10, 10, 10. 2a. You may write up to three stanzas, a total of 12 lines. 3. Put your own dark twist on the poem. Your version can be mysterious, dark, or horror. This review has no bearing on the outcome of the contest. Reviewing the entries gives me the opportunity to take a closer look. Overall Impression: This awesome poem reads like a story and I enjoyed it a lot! It's got that dark twist I was looking for - how can one for wrong with a little murder, right? And in a dark alley - well, even better! I like the image you chose for the entry because it nicely compliments the content. Good rating and genre choices, too! Grammar and Mechanics: - 10 syllables per line? - "poor thing" kept in the poem? - Does the poem have a dark spin? No spelling or grammar issues were noted. Closing thoughts: As a small thank you for your entry, I am enclosing a few gift points. Kindest Regards, Lilli Thank you for sharing your work. ***Disclaimer*** The comments herein are just my humble opinions. Use whatever is useful; discard the rest.
