Comment from Baltimore Born

Excellent

Your first stanza starts off strong. Great personifications throughout the poem. Good rhyming throughout this poem. Each stanza connected well with the next. Your last stanza closes the poem well. Nice job.

This is very deep and readers will enjoy the authenticity as I did. This is thought provoking with good imagery and descriptions too.

Best wishes,

Excellent

I thought this was an enjoyable poem. With each stanza I had to take time to absorb it. Your poem is deep and greatly "satisfying". Well written and very creative.

Exceptional

I really did love this, thank you for sharing it. I love how (for me) it paints imagery of the masses bound in spiritual slavery, many fated to never be free, the key to the bonds is to learn to listen within to ones intuition, to learn the art of free thinking, critical thinking... its so sad how we often figure this out too late in life, then count the wasted opportunities to have really lived our lives... my mind is racing now :) thank you.
