Hi Strychnine ;

Welcome to Writing.com. I noticed you joined not even a month ago. I do hope you partake in all the Birthday celebrations have to offer. It really is the most exciting time of year here as WDC.

That said, I am here to provide a review of your poem Labyrinth of Shadows. I was very impressed. I was bound by your words and pulled into that confined space with the poet. Luckily I could escape.

I am not a professional so please take what you wish from this review and disregard anything that does not resonate with you. This is only my opinion as a creative who loves to write.

I believe your poem to be free verse. That is my favourite kind. It follows the mind of the poet and goes where they go. There is no rhyming pattern that I see.

That first verse really sets the stage for the piece. It draws you in and the sensory details make the room come alive so that you are there within that space, feeling all the coldness.

I love the language you used.

Thank you so much for sharing this piece. I look forward to reading more of your work. I do hope you enjoy your time here at Writing.com. I have been here since March of 2013. Don't hesitate to ask any questions. If I don't know I can direct you as best as I can.

My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
