Mirror mirror on the wall

Sofa sofa over there

Desk desk in the corner

Man I'm so good at home decoration

Hi! I just wanted to say that I thought this was funny. :)

Just one comment for you... I would probably try to be more specific than "over there" regarding the sofa. The other two seem pretty specific ("in the corner" and "on the wall") and I think it would be funnier if there was a more concrete description.

Oh! Also, I would probably change the title. "Mirror Mirror on the Wall" would probably suffice. "Um" is a pretty odd title!

Anyway, cool poem! Very funny. I like it! :)

Good morning/ afternoon/ evening/ night/ or whenever it is in your corner of the dimension! Wren here for a short review! I think that @TheWordsOfWolf would like your poem as well! Your poem is extremely short but definitely hilarious! (Did anyone else read the first line in the Evil Queen's voice and then stop in shock at the rest of the poem? No? Just me? Okay.) Um yeah! Not much to say about something so short other than it was exceptionally funny and entertaining! The last line seems to break the rhythm a little bit, maybe shortening it would help? Thanks, keep up the great work, and I'm excited to read more!

Please excuse my inability to make a decent review.

I was very pleasantly surprised by how much I laughed from this very short poem.

Please continue writing more humorous and creative content!

Good day to you!

BAHAHAHA
Oh my word I saw this was so popular and thought 'there's no way it's that good- it's a comedy!'
But holy shoot that was funny.

I feel REALLY bad reviewing any of this because it's already so great, but I just have a few ideas.
I'd love it if you changed the title. Maybe something dramatic that somehow ties in, making it foreshadow something somber.

Also in the last line, 'home decoration'...I just feel like there could be a better word scheme. Not quite sure why. "decor"? Eh, too short. Well, maybe you get the point. Something about it doesn't sound perfect yet.

Other than that, no faults at all. Loove it.
I would love to try satire sometime, but I just don't know if I could pull it off XD

Keep it up!

Oh. Oh my. Beautiful. I could feel the emotions vividly. *clutches heart* Absoluetly astounding.

XD But seriously. It was amusing. I was expecting something completely different after reading the first line. But nope.

This is really good! Add a couple more lines and it'd be even better! I love this.

I found this this to be very humorous.It had a nice flow to it.I really enjoyed it.It is a little short through You could make it a tad longer so it doesn't seem to just cut off suddenly.I like how you repeated the words mirror,sofa,and desk.That add to the upbeat rhythm of it.I must say I like how you didn't rhyme.Mainstream poems today think all poems should rhyme but that's not true.It had a tasteful rebellious feel to it.This was a fantastic job.Good luck!!!

Sylar replied · Nov 25, 2014

Thanks, but the whole poem is a joke. It's like "mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?"

This was indeed funny! LOL!

Tired of the deep poems somehow though. Just like jack said. Tis gave me the best curve on my whole body.

Great job there bud. I think you're worth following. Hahaha.

I felt sleepy upon bumping on the line "sofa, sofa" though.

man, you make people sleepy.

Sylar, sylar on the net,
when will we ever meet? I hope you'll see
How my room is messy.
So one day you'll fix it
With your amazing decorating skills.

hahahaha!!!!

Jack here for a review, don't know why though. :)

That just but smile on my face, I don't know why but it just did. I just got to say thankyou.

Some poems are just so deep, you know what I mean, while they are good, but they always leave you upset.

This was so good, I don't really know what to say.

It was random and random is cool.

Though I would like to point out some problems.

Oh wait there isn't any:) Just so good.

I am out of compliments, because you made me day either way. Thanks:)

Jack
