I like the tempo of this poem, it reminds me of that famous poem the kids learn in school about a train ride.
How about one about a fox escaping from the dogs through the bush and the forest, with this tempo it would be great.Z.

I enjoyed your monotetra poem. Skillful work. It didn't scare me too much because the presentation is quite exquisite. Usually, I find this form not easily enjoyable. Brooke's are the other ones I like. Thanks for sharing :) Lise

This is my first monotetra, and I love it.

The repetitions really added an emphasis I liked. A lot. As for content- I loved it. It's a topic not posted on much (that I've read) and I thought it was original and refreshing.

Good work here with rhyming words and words flowing well. A great tale of how Satan lurks everywhere and is out to get us all. Good message in this poem.

This is an excellent Monotetra that reads perfectly. I like the form you chose for your wonderful words. You message is so clear with great artwork (I used the same one for one of my works). It was a pleasure to read and you author notes just add and teaches the reader this form. Well done.

The use of repetition adds to the haunting effect of this piece. I liked these lines which I think encapsulates the theme of your poem.
"For Satan knows our nature well.
Our weakest wishes, he can tell,
And soon release from cruelest cell,
The Hounds of Hell. The Hounds of Hell!"
Well done. I am back with the living again!

    Thank you so much Tarnished, I am inspired by your review and humbled by the rating. Yes! I thought your smirk and mine very similar. Of course your Joker really is the devil too! Two of like minds.

There's a sriking rhythm to this poem, almost like a drum beat, so it's easy to follow. The repetitions are effective. First time I've read this particuloar form, and I found it appealing. Must be great for reading aloud too. The photo was impressive also. A superlative job.

A neat and conforming monotetra, which I'm glad you explained for me. Rhyme and metre are present, as is a doleful caveat to us sinners, skillfully packaged. Be well and write more.

I think this is fantastic.

I love the rhythm and feel of the poem. The repeated line gives me a moment to pause and feel a chill at the meaning.

Picture is amazing!

Thanks for sharing this work. Really nice.
