i think Frank knew what he had to do to win and did it; it seems unfair, especially as Timeless asked him to match the 16, but it was efficient. Frank dropped 18 lines but the lines were superrr long. it never really gave Timeless much of a chance. it's a cop out and i'm not sure how i feel about it, but it worked

as for what i thought specifically about each verse, well, Timeless wrote a nice verse with some nice phrases and a very dope closing couplet. he didn't give himself ample room to really flesh out his story though due to keeping his lines relatively short and also dropping to the minimum. i think at times the thoughts were a little scattered.

Frank took and extra day and also dropped twice as many lines but the piece was much more fleshed out and it had imagery that transported me. some vivid lines. crisp. i think he struggled at times to carry the rhyme and that made it awkward and clunky at times. the opening line was awkward also. overall it was a verse that made me believe i was at/watching a boxing match. cut out the long lines, though.

so, Frank wrote a piece that was totally immersed in the picture. he created a world. he gets the vote
