Hi tvaughn Author Icon!

I found your poem on the Noticing Newbies page and thought I'd take a look. Here are my thoughts.

VOICE, TONE, DICTION:

The voice is first person, and the tone is matter-of-fact. The diction is standard.

SOUND PATTERNS:

There was assonance with "They say", "are all", "to do", and more. Some ending words for certain lines rhymed, like before/anymore, and sync/think.

*RainbowL*IMAGERY:

Doors.

LINE STRUCTURE: LINE BREAKS, METER, REPETITION:

The line breaks used enjambment with no punctuation. The meter was a bit rocky.

ERRORS:

None found.

SUGGESTIONS:

I'd add some more imagery to this piece, since there was only the image of the doors in here. Add a little bit of punctuation and smooth out the meter.

*Heart*FAVORITE LINES:

"another one of those places
where you never have to think"

OVERALL IMPRESSION:

This was an interesting poem, very cryptic in nature but I think I was able to make out its message from the first line and the title. It was a good read, well done.

Thanks for sharing your talent with us, and keep writing! *Reading**Writing*
