Thought this was an enjoyable read from both of you!

You incorporated some very good imagery, particularly in the beginning bar. The approach you took was rather interesting with the detailed visualisation of the scenery. It was different enough. I really thought this was a very great read up until the middle section, where you started to include a rather abstract tone. I tend to write abstract too, so I caught the concept of it. It can actually help to enhance the narrative to a certain degree, but I enjoyed the directness of your first half of the verse more and would have therefore hoped to see the scheme employed throughout the whole verse, since it's based on a specific line length. Your last line, then, provided the clarity I was so fond of from your beginning bars. The flow was more or less smooth and your rhyming patterns were decent. Nice work overall.

What I really liked about this was the rather unconventional, yet consistent scheme here.
It contributed greatly to a smooth read. Content-wise, it was a very good depiction of a rather "direct" storyline, I also liked the incorporation of the character from the very beginning. I enjoyed the narrative as well, you had terrific imagery and very interesting vocabulary, such as the reference to the debris. The entertaining factor of your ending bars was great. I thought your "story" had a quite thought out, good progression. Some of your lines seemed to be stretched compared to the overall verse, but it was smooth read still, due to your scheme.
