the idea isnt new. its a overly harped on cliche, if you want to do something like that the words need to be pretty at least

I appreciate it, I think the first two lines could still use some tweaks for sure, it’s the last couplet I’m proud of

increasing your economy and creating more meaningful line breaks (like layering in a double meaning) could do a ton to help reduce cliche images/ideas

Sure, I don’t fully mind the cliches here, I think sometimes they can work. I should work more on line breaks and creating enjambment though

Is every idea in our writing new? It’s cliche for sure but I don’t think that’s necessarily bad. And yeah I agree, it could be better worded, it was a first draft Ive been trying to make it sound better
