This was a cool verse I’m sorry you didn’t get to drop it we moved on rather fast last week. Think this is a good topic but almost feel like it has too much going on in it, realistically there’s one central theme and that’s time. But there’s other ways you could have twisted it, you told a pretty safe story in my eyes topic wise. Was good but you didn’t really break the mold, rhyming was solid, progression was decent , and like I said I wish you could have dropped this and competed in more weeks because I think you’re dope. Glad I had the privilege of battling you though. You’re an awesome writer and though I feel like this piece maybe could have used some more fine tuning and maybe a final read through/edit would have benefited it but overall I was a fan of it

You don't know what the "Allegory of the Cave" is, do you? Because these pieces are both conceptually the same thing. I was gonna point out that the technical writing is pretty good in this but that the concept has been done.
To quote:
'Life is like being chained up in a cave, forced to watch shadows flitting against a stone wall'
^^^That is from Plato's Allegory of the cave. You should check it out, even if it's just a summary...it's a good read.
