Feline Ritual [ASR] A Pantoum about a strange ritual. . . |
Greetings, I’m here for I Write in 2024. A striking and slightly, darkly amusing poem we have here, using a carefully arranged poetic form and showing us a sacrifice, a feline ritual of catching and eating birds. I like the repetition and rhythm it has. You seem to have done very well in that respect, creating something easy to read and understand. I see the pantoum does not specify any meter, which is nice - that’s my kind of poem it seems simple enough that I could try one. You incorporated all the prompt words well; writing something for the Writer’s Cramp has always been a pesky thing for me, and a task which I usually avoid at all costs. It seems like a waste of my time to pour out a burst of effort to write something within a single day to highly specific requirements, only to lose the contest to someone else and end up with something hastily and poorly written sitting in my port. Of course, that’s what the recycle bin is for. Luckily, you don’t have to worry about sending your poem there. It’s a spooky and somewhat unnerving piece which touches on various primal themes and deep-seated fears and perceptions of the divine in the feline, using rhyme and meter and repetition to create feelings of unease and ritualistic events. Take care, thanks for sharing, and keep writing My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
