Stand and scream
Sit
Raise hands
Blast signals at
Bold men
Don't listen
I'm holding to nothing
Loose principles
Stuck fast to the
Wind
Caution elapsed
Calling to you
No need to reply
Monologue
Watch my fall
As it ends
All told
Makes no sense
For the jury

Loved it.
Hi there, 567ajt! I'm here to rescue your poem from the green room!
I think these two lines would be better as one line, so as to improve the flow. I feel that the wind isn't quite important enough in this poem to get its own line.So this is really interesting. I like the voice in this piece, and while you say it wouldn't make much sense, there's a feeling about it that is really somber, and it's really nice.
That being said, I have a few things that you could change that might make it better.
First of all, I suggest you left align your poem, as it was a little difficult for me to read while it was centered.
Some of your line breaks didn't make sense to me.
I suggest you combine these two lines as well because of the alliteration between blast and bold.
This line break makes sense, but I think it would sound better as one line, especially because it would make this line's structure a little more parallel with the preceding line. Parallel structure is cool because it's a subtle way to add a little more juxtaposition in the words, as the reader sees that the lines are similar, but the meaning is so different.
I think that you should take out all the capitals in this poem. While capitalizing the first letter of a line is legitimate, no caps gives it a different tone, a more somber one, and I think that it would be incredibly appropriate for this poem. Capitalization in Poetry There's a great article on caps in poetry.
I really like your repetition at the end. Usually, I would suggest that you don't repeat so close together, but it lends a nice effect at the end.
I hope that this review was useful to you! Nice job on this one. Happy writing!
Hi, Just here to say that his makes more sence than you'd think, although i dont understand the bit at the end.
Hai. I'm TiggaBiscuit - The one and only!
And I'm going to review your *cough* lovely *cough* poem.
I think this is an awesome poem and I haven't got a lot to add to it!
Maybe you could add punctuation to it! Or something like that.
Anyway keep up the great work.
P.S. I'm Chuck10931. So be afraid... Very afraid.
Ambiguous, and I appreciate the layout
