The Lord of the Attic

So this poesy is a tangy little thing. I mean, of course this seems to be satire, but is it completely ridicule, or a subject of reality you honestly care about?

Lord over old and broken furniture,
tarnished silverware and musty clothing! - This couplet is something I find ironic. Because of the selected adjectives. First you say the very hum-drum adjectives that are "old" and "Broken." But then you move right along to employ tarnished and musty, which I find the latter to hold much more attraction and poetic sway than the first two, which my opinion takes in meagerly.

A crown of calico rests upon his head.
He sits upon his throne, an old rocking chair. - Okay, so If I'm reading into this right, The king of the attic is a cat. Well if that's so, then you could have made it napping upon his throne if you wanted... could add more humor

"His mighty stables house." - It may well just be an issue with me, but I don't understand why you need to say stables and house. It just concocts weirdness into the mix. The Rocking Horse line is great! however, and kind of nullifies sort of a bummer line before it.

(sorry if some of my overlooking sounds kind of harsh)

and white sheets. - White sheets falls really, reallly, reaaally flat here. You had a great thing going for ya in that stanza. And then you just kinda gunned it down.

I don't particularly feel you need that final line. The Lord of the Attic seems like a fitting way to dispense, and withdraw from the scene.

Although I often use it (and to each his own in most things) I don't really admire or am amused by satire. It seems like it should only be used in a situation that is woeful; but maybe this situation is woeful to you. Satire just comes off so sinister and dejected... I don't know. Why do they even call it humor I think to myself sometimes.

Good job here however. It was a creative idea, no doubt

Hahaha! This was absolutely hilarious! What satire!

Willow C. here, Now bow down to my reveiwing might!!!
Mah Hah Hah....
*coughs* sorry about that...

Anywho, I start with the title, as always. It's good; brief, relevant, and interesting. This is good because long titles make people think you ramble, relevance doesn't make people think you're wacko, amd interesting attracts potential readers. So good for you.

Next the poem itself. Argueably the most important part of the poem. I liked the bathrobe bit...and the description of the average attic is very good. No over dramatic bits or vague descriptions, so good.

My only complaint is that sing praises to the king bit, a little...aaa.

So yeah, just stay away from the bits that don't really fit well with the rest of the poem, especially in tye beginning. What about "All hail the king", but "sing praises" is a little odd for a greeting even for a king unless he's the pope in Medevil Europe.

Peace out,

Fortis, my dear grill. Griffin, here to bore you with a review!

First off, I really liked the idea. It was creative and had a twist of humor running throughout it...like a thread! ...
>.> Yeah.
Anyway. I really liked the description of the horse (thread-bare, my word! *Fistpump*) and my favorite stanza was

Marvel at his land
of creaky floorboards,
and splintering rafters,
and white sheets.
