Temptations

Temptations

Good choices and right decisions
revolving in this broken skull
Own blood sipped by your conscience
more nerve endings became dull

Your tongue suffers much hunger
aiming for any greedy amusements
Shout such lies and do bad things
for the sake of your advancements

Cruel plans for brain's satisfaction
preparing gadgets for the worst
Putting much efforts for goals
Everybody's wanted the most

Sterile hands moved to my chest
hoping to find my wicked heart
My Burning passion for myself
building temptation on my mind

    Uhmm,, I feel like you focused too much on the rhymes And the vocabulary. I don't feel your voice in it. hence some lines turned out to read strange..
    Some sound off but overall was an ok piece.

    Why don't you give it a try to free style?

    A few lines are a bit.. weird. But I think if you rewrite them it would make the poem sound better and flow better. But on the plus side.. The words you used were strong and the poem was full of meaning. Great write.

    Pretty good. It started out rhyming, but, maybe you just nixed it in the end?
    I liked the last stanza most, btw. It was beautiful.
    Oh, suggestion! This line sounds sorta funny:
    "Your tongue suffers much hunger"
    It's a bit awkward, and pauses the poem. Maybe if you reworded it? Try "suffers from hunger," "from the hunger" or... Somethin.
    Haha.

    I love your rhyme scheme and your word picking. Very well written poem.

    Your tongue suffers much hunger
    aiming for any greedy amusements
    Shout such lies and do bad things
    for the sake of your advancements

    This is the most powerful stanza. I'm impressed with the emotion you put in it!!! Worth 5/5!!!
