Evenin’, sgp. Haven’t read any other reviews, so if I repeat what they say, then I apologize.
I’m not too fond of this piece for a handful of reasons. First of all, it feels like the tail end of a larger poem—one that could house more than just one thematic element. In fact, this didn’t do much justice to your talent, and I want to see this shine a bit more. I do suggest enlarging and refocusing your topic, and give a bit of anecdotal reasoning behind your claim here that God is the only judge. Give me, the reader, a reason to care, and give it swiftly.
Your grammar and punctuation is pretty shoddy, and that needs repairing. You seem to demonstrate a confusion as to spacing around punctuation, as well as a confusion of subject-verb agreement. These are easy concepts to grasp, though, so I’m not all too worried. To give you a quick repair:
If life were so simple,
why would the bitter rage
continue to stay?
As if my attitude
defines who I am.
But I know there’s only
one judge, one opinion,
that I care about most:
Hhe lives above, beyond the sky.
Who is this guy? He is God.
Two points of annoyance here that I really want you to mop up:
1. “Continue to stay” This is redundant, as if something stays, it continually does so until it no longer stays. Continuing to stay is just staying, so I want you to wipe out “Continuing”.
2. “One opinon that I care about most” This is a duh statement as “most” is a superlative adverb. You can only care about one thing most, and you don’t need to state it because it’s grammatically understood. Wipe it up and try again.
All in all, this needs much work, but I’m sure you can handle it. Don’t let me down, and let me know if you have any questions.
