    The writing was quite good. You used lots of good metaphors. I especially liked the one about "I am the music man". The rhythm was a bit off though. I ...

    This did not read like a poem. There wasn't half as much imagery/metaphor as there should be. Throuhgout the entire poem, there is only the image of the wall. That ...
