First off I'll say I'm feeling Geno in his picture was meh. A few I've seen, mine included, are just not too inspirational. I'm personally looking forward to working with a quote or whatever is in store next week, think its gonna be a turning point.

Geno, that was a unique ass verse haha kept me entertained throughout tbh. Content was borderline bizarre and had a secret society sex ritual feel to it. Criticism-wise, something that stood out to me were lines like "Orgasmic organisms in this amatuer division, this industry rocks" that worked with the lines before and after in terms of flow and rhymescheme, but the pause in the line itself kinda threw the flow off momentarily in the line itself. Dunno how to better describe it but I feel that some reworded could have the verse reading a bit more effortlessly. Conceptually I feel you did as much with the verse as you could and it still turned into a solid read

pohfig - It had to have taken a considerable amount of time to generate a feasible concept out of that picture, but you pulled it off well. To me, you came up with a very relatable verse and incorporated enough with the imagery and word choices to make it fit in with the picture in an abstract sense. It was a light and day difference in interpretation then your competitor went, which I feel was in your favor. You came strong in all regards, from consistency of content in each line to the effortless transition of rhyme schemes. This was a strong showing especially considering the topic you had to work with.

Vote goes to pohfig, above all because of the creativity in the concept of his verse, but also in his execution of it. High level of competition and writing ability showcased from both of you.

EDIT: I was constantly scrolling up to reread portions of the verse and can see a bunch of redundancy and grammatical errors, but I'm not going to fix them lol
