Adonis - So i honestly thought this was about the desecration and destruction of the environment spoken in the voice of mother earth?? probably off lol but i dig it. I specifically thought this segmengt was interesting and ultimately what lead me to think the way i did (this piece being somewhat of an environmental commentary):
The math don't equate, you're a born mute,
Screaming “help!” in sign won't compute,
illustrating how Earth, it her own way, is screaming for help in the form of global events...however those too are sometimes lost on people. Techncially speaking, it was good. I don't really have any complaints in that dept tbh. Good solid effort, my man.
Mike Wrecka - I can't help but parallel this verse to the story of Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius? I'm only minutely familiar with that story but i like how you brought a concept to that historical setting. I suppose the theme here was cycle of violence? maybe not lol. maybe the self destructive characteristic of greed. That maybe it. The flow was great and like Adonis, i think you were pretty sound in that area of writing.
Vote - this is possibly the toughest one this week. Both had a very interesting creative takes on the topic; Sharing somewhat similar theme of destruction. But i think i will go with my gut instinct and vote Adonis due to a more engaging verse, in terms of what i'm looking for. But in all honesty...He only won my vote by .005% Nice solid battle here.
