It was a great meaningful poem about how a guy simply spends his saturday night. I read through this a couple times. I thought it was talking about how he met a lover but then i realized It was just about enjoying solitude in contentment.so pretty with good flow. I liked how it kept me in suspense as to why he found himself in the cafe.
A good title should contain more than one word.
there were a few spelling errors and incorrect word choices, for example
"woolworths nrhinestones, diamond earrings" should be Woolworth rhinestone, diamond earrings. and "the ladies only got my money" could have been the women only got my money.
I liked the use of the rhetorical questions. This was a good try, keep the good work.
Your usage of transitional phrases is within an acceptable range! Nevertheless, you may still benefit from reading the info below.
Tips:
One sign of an excellent writer is the use of transitional phrases. Transitional words and phrases (e.g. therefore, consequently, furthermore) contribute to the cohesiveness of a text and allow the sentences to flow smoothly. Without transitional phrases, a text will often seem disorganized and will most likely be difficult to understand. When these special words are used, they provide organization within a text and lead to greater understanding and enjoyment on the part of the reader.
These words and phrases fall under a few grammatical categories:
• Conjunctions: but, provided, and, although
• Prepositional phrases: in addition to, in conclusion
• Adverbs: also, however, nevertheless
Transitional phrases may be used in various places in a text:
• between paragraphs
• between sentences
• between sentence parts
• within sentence parts
For example, you could write:
Form and function are central themes in Biology. However, knowing the structure of something does not necessarily reveal its function.
The word 'however' contributes to greater unity or cohesion between sentences.
There is a reason the transitions are disorganized. When you imagine scenes, they don't always transition right. This very well happens when skipping thoughts over. Also, when I am under the influence of caffeine I tend to go over more stones than usual, causing a ripple of thoughts in my mind, a disorganized ripple that goes out in shards, not waves.
ok cool, i wasn't saying that you have to do that in your poem, its just a tip that would make it more English.
thanks for your feedback thou at least now i know why you did what you did.
