Not bad. I especially liked the first half of the poem. It seemed to flow better than the rest, and you were more "careful" with your words. But hey, you wrote a poem with the word banshee in it, and that has to count for something

| Well, I used the dictionary for banshee, and it's not meant to be the Halo one (the Halo Banshee can come as an afterthought) but as the female spirit that is said to shriek before someone dies....in this case, the fool. |

| Yea i agree, the top seemed to flow and the bottom kinda seemed like you struggled for rhymes but for a poem attempt you did a pretty good job. Keep it up! |

| hunter_that_dances...hmmm. Good job with the poem, though I would have abolished the ... at the end of most (all?) lines. Aside from that the only other thing I could thing of was your closing line and how you could have incorperated the Darkness part of it into the title of the poem, e.g. Darkness Follows or something like that, otherwise good job, have you done other poems on this site? I really must look up some of Solidus'... |

Good to see you HTD. Where've ya been?
Pretty good poem. Could have flowed better in some places, and used some spice in others. But, overall, I liked it.
Now, where's a good [newly posted] story of yours for me to review? _________________ -MCC |

Pretty good peom there man. Although, it seemed to at least that towards the end of the peom you started using more words in the lines, besides that it was great!  |

Now, that's pretty good, yep, yep, yep!
Interesting approach toward the rhyming.
