Hello, HDC !

This is a "Fox's Socks Newbie Poetry ContestOpen in new Window. judge's review!

*Checkb*Overall Impression:
This was a fun and unexpected entry full of humor and self-irony.

*Checkb*Form, Rhythm, Cadence, and Style:
You've chosen a very freeform structure that tiptoes along stream-of-consciousness. The uneven lines feel spontaneous (adding to the stream-of-consciousness vibe), and the rhymes are playful. However, a bit more structural consistency could help readers identify with the poem a bit more and you wouldn't lose any of the poem's charm.

*Checkb*Content:
The casual, conversational style makes for a light-hearted poem despite the speaker's sticky situation. However, the loss of a writer's prized communication device is underneath that self-deprecating humor, which gives the poem a little weight.

*Checkb*Grammar and Mechanics:
false piece of mind --> false peace of mind

*Checkb*Final Thoughts:
This is a funny and relatable snapshot of everyday life, and I'm sure it will resonate with many readers.

Thank you for sharing your work with us!
