A Masterpiece

by khobo   Nov 3, 2007


The lines I draw say more than words I say
The eyes speak the truth and are revealing
The arcs I make define if she's okay
Though her face expressions are deceiving.
I decide if her stance is powerful
I decide the outfit she displays
I decide whether her hair's light or bold
Ev'ry li'l detail has something to say.
The thin hangs on to thick across the page
Powerful, like lightning, with just one stroke
She's my creation and I choose her fate
All strength is lost when the pencil is broke.
But looking down, it's just a bunch of marks
And yet, it's worthy of others' remarks.

    I liked the theme on this, and the way you portrayed it was amazing, there are just a few things i'd like to point out.

    First off:
    "The arcs I make defines if she's okay
    Though her face expressions are deceiving."
    These two lines have a few grammar mistakes, for instance, on the first line, "defines" should be "define". and on the second, "face" should be "facial".

    Now, moving on to the rhyme scheme, it was good. But i have a large problem (and i see this a lot in others) where you will have a word that rhymes, but you'll make it plural.. it doesn't rhyme after that! so, what i would do if i were you, is, on this line, "I decide the outfit she displays" since "displays" is supposed to rhyme with "say", you should change how the line is worded, heres an example, "I decide the outfit she'll display". Then "display" and "say" rhyme again. :]
    Great job though,
    5/5 still.
