MEOW! Hello, friend! My name is Ellie and today I will be reviewing using my very own Black Cat Review Method! It is very similar to the incredible YWS S'more Method but I have Halloween-ified it and made it spooky! My little black cat friend, Vladimir, wants to offer his opinion on your amazing literary piece:
Mystical Witch Hat - What I See, Observe, and Interpret
I dig up the same bones just to bury them in the same place.
What a GORGEOUS poetic statement! I love the imagery associated with bones in poetry. Digging something up, them burying it again. Remembering pain, just to ignore it. Resurfacing emotions, just to deny them. Starting a fight, just to never take accountability for your actions.
I love the imagery you use of "pulling at your lips". This really speaks to me. Sometimes I feel so compelled to speak up for what I know is right, but I cannot. This poem captures that feeling of being trapped in a cage, unable to leave. Perhaps trapped by your own freedom.
It is interesting how it seems like the writer is describing themself as this dog, ashamed, burying a bone. Overall, I love your use of imagery. The whole poem is so symbolic- I love it!
Vladimir’s Advice - Suggestions for Improvement
I would love to see more sensory details! This poem has so much imagery and allows me to picture so much, but I think if you added small, subtle details, like colors, temperatures, or textures, it would just add an extra layer of awesome. Ocerall though, beautifully written
Jack O’Lanterns - My Favourite Parts and Praises
How can I let the dead rest when I have become so restless?
It is a punishment for false closure.
I love the use of questions in poetry. I love how you use rest and restless. opposites in the same sentence, lovely!
