I thought it was funny and a great idea but it didn't seem much like a poem. You need to make it flow a bit more and add some stanzas. Some imergy and similies would also be nice:)
Okay grammar check:)
I didn't really like the ending. It kind of took away the poem feel and it seemed like you just wanted to get it done and over with.
Overall just give this poem a bit more "poem":)
Um... well. I don't think its the best ideas for their to be a sad face as the title or an emoticon at the end of the poem. its just a bit unprofessional... I don't have too much to say. It didn't have much substance or pull me in at all.. sorry.
helloo hayden!
I'm going to keep this review short because I don't really have a lot to say =) I liked this write and it made me smile XD
It's short and simple and straight to the point, which is a good thing. So yeah, that was pretty much all I had to say. Sorry, I know this isn't helpful at all =)
I really enjoyed reading this.

Hello! I have to say this is an interesting poem.
as your title because, normally, people write words that make the title, such as Sad Face or Sad Emoticon. They normally write poems like that, thus people normally seek out the familiar.
First off, I suggest that you don't put
Next, I like how free the poem is, yet I yearn for a bit more punctuation. Well, that's because the poem needs a bit more flow and control, even though there is some flow to the poem. I feel the poem forces you to read it faster, thus some punctuation is needed to slow the reader down a bit when it comes to reading the poem.
Moving on, normally, I look for concrete details and imagery, but I seem to find very little of both in this poem. Therefore, I suggest you describe how the "sad faces spoil pages," "ruin emails," and how they "are the root of all evil." These are just ideas. I'm pretty sure you have ideas of your own. Speaking of "the root of all evil," I also suggest you get rid of this cliche because well... it's a cliche. You should always want your poem to have fresh phrases or words, not overly used words or cliches, or else people will label your poem as nothing new or fresh.
I also suggest you get rid of the emoticon at the end of your poem because your poem should contain only words and sentences. That and punctuation.
Overall, your poem is interesting. It's a pretty good poem. With some revision, it will probably be even better. Hope you keep writing poetry!:)
It's cute, sweet I guess. I can't take it seriously as it isn't really a poem or even a fully realized humor piece, it's just a witty anecdote. That's nice, I admit I got a chuckle. The THAT line seemed a bit out of place when read aloud, odd structure. Aside that I didn't really find any real errors. A nice piece.
