Hey there! It's ZeldaIsShiek here to review another quintessential piece of literature that made my day and win this Review Day by helping the Red Pandas stay in first place and reaching my goal of 80 reviews. I might even get to 100, if I work hard enough. Anyway, that's enough idle chatter from me. Let's get into the review.
I don't want to offend you, but the concepts that this poem covers are utterly disgusting. I grew in a Jehovah's Witness family (rather, am growing up) and I understand this more than most people because my father left the organization a long time ago, having felt out of place. He later learned of their corruption, and I started to realize that shunning people for changing their beliefs and refusing to communicate with them at all costs is literally illegal. Yep. It honestly just disgusts me how parents will not even pick up the phone if their own children are calling them. What if they die because they didn't answer.
Wow. Sorry about ranting. Let's actually review your poem now. I liked the abstract yet stern feeling this poem delivered. It felt like a poem that commanded the reader to take action, yet the abstract style of the stanzas and the word choice made it feel more like a flowing request. An example of this is the varied length of the stanzas. What made it stern was the repetitive nature and that most of the sentences were commands.
That's all for today, and keep writing!
