Oh Vex15, oh Vex15, oh Vex15!!
The poem was fun reading at first but then it became to ''repetitive''.
Probably you did want it to be that repetitively repetitive, but it did become a little annoying( actually a lot).
Anyways have fun writing more stuff. Maybe something that is not so repetitive. ;-)

Yo, Catlover211! cleverclogs here for a quick review!

This is hilarious. I love the repetitive repetition of repetitiveness. As I said in my post below, it reminds of me of Lady Redundant Woman from WordGirl (yes, I used to love that show; don't judge), a character who loved redundancy and repetitiveness. I also love how you also added some instances of Captain Obvious to add to the hilarity of this poem. For instance,

This is a repetitive poem


and

Because a repetitive repeating repetitiveness repeated poem

Is repetitive.


I don't know if it's intentional, but I love how these lines just state the obvious like that. It's one of my favorite kinds of humor. Of course, since this is a review, I have to offer some suggestions, so here's a few things.

Let's go back to the lines I just quoted.

Is repetitive.


As much as I love it, I'm not sure it's grammatically correct. Maybe you could substitute the second-to-last line for the title, so it looks like this:

Because a repeating repetitive poem about repeated repetitiveness

Is repetitive.


You don't have to do it that way, but I'd recommend taking another look at that line anyway to make it better for the grammarz.

There was sort of a spot in the middle of the poem where it got a little too repeatedly repetitive to read, but in the end, I like how it just flowed from one redundancy to another, so I think it works fine (was that a run-on sentence or what?).

Overall, I really liked this poem. Just take a look at the little thing I pointed out, and it'll be good to go! Great job making me laugh. Keep up the awesome work! :D

Haha, it's a nice poem, and funny, but the problem is that it's TOO repetitive. I know that it's SUPPOSED to be like that, but somehow the over use of the word "repetitive" makes the poem lack flair. I don't know, maybe it's just me. But you could also tone it down, if you like.

Nice work. Keep writing!

Hey, AJ dropping by.

I saw a lot of repetition. I would suggest less repetition. Less repetition would be better, so you shouldn't have so much repetition.
(OK, serious now)

I got a smile out of this poem! Humorous poems are right up my alley, so reading this was a breath of fresh air. My only suggestion would be more repetition.

Have a great day!

My only advice is that this poem is rather repetitive. Perhaps you could consider re-wording some of it? ;)

Hope you liked it! It's meant to be extremely annoying in a nice way, and yes, the use of repetition is on purpose. Have a great night!
