Your poem made me smile this morning.
I like how you were able to make the lines rhyme in this short of a poem.
I also like the rhythm of the second line that feels like someone walking along a path.

    I always appreciate it so much when a reviewer is specific about what "hit" with them. Thank you for helping to make me aware of what appealed with this one.

When you look through the blinds what do you see? I'm sure that it's something that you don't want to be a part of, because usually you are spying on someone you'll not agree with.

    Yeah, because otherwise, what is the point of spying, right? Spying is for that quintessential vicarious thrill!! Thanks for a terrific review.

I enjoyed reading your cleverly written short poem. It flows well with good alliteration of w words and sounds. Your artwork choice enhances your well-received message of monitored. I think you should promote this poem more. It will awaken writers-block for some. Best wishes!

Excellent, by far yours has the most creativity. I am a sucker for murder mysteries,
your poem makes me want to read a good mystery again. According to the picture you never know who's watching. Have a great holiday.

That's a great use of every word in this super brief form. I like how you incorporated all those question words and we writers should all be like a spy who observes everything to write it down. Best wishes in the contest!

Scary thought! I hope it's not true. It seems every where one goes someone or something is watching, and gathering information.
Good luck in the contest.

    It's really the case, isn't it? There is ALWAYS someone nearby with a cellphone camera to catch the action.

This is great! I love the way you have managed to describe what a spy does with just eight syllables and you have even made the words rhyme. Well done and good luck.
