Re: My Acceptance Speech.
Can I get any feedback please guys?
Re: My Acceptance Speech.
I actually really liked this. it had a thoughtful approach that is poignant and concise yet still very approachable with a smooth meter that isn't so over simplified that you feel like you're stop and go at all times. it actually reminds me a bit Maven. not sure if you/anyone remembers him but trust, it's a compliment. it was just a beautiful balance of poetic introspect vs efficient and structuring and perfect word choice with a nice sense of progress internally. it's almost a bit of a rant, which, for once was done correct. few quotable favorites being:

I refuse to believe that parts of a rainbow can signify the type of mood you're in.

^^^ My favorite lines. Especially the "pronounce myself dead without an outline of chalk." bit... that was wonderful.
I feel like the piece was ripped directly from the diary of someone dealing with a lot of anxiety/depression problems. It was a very organized clutter. Like fine tuned chaos. I enjoyed reading it. I think the message is sort of lost sometimes in the middle here and there, but it definitely comes back at the end. If you're not the one pulling the strings you're the one dancing. I think with such a deep concept you'd need to write more though. I felt like you were just picking up steam and you decided to end it. Not that it felt unresolved, but it could have certainly progressed. Nice man.
Re: My Acceptance Speech.
I'm just going to say, the theme is nice my son. The Acceptance Speech should be a part of everyone's lives because we all have problems. We should vocalize them and help others gain comprehension about them. It takes a lot out of a writer to get personal with their writing and be real.

my ideal world means no muscle mass could define who was strong.
This made me mad. It was so good, but it felt like it could have been more if you tweaked the wording.
Regardless, it was dope.
Keep dropping yo shit Mimic.

Re: My Acceptance Speech.
Worrrrd, definitely a mouthful. I agree with above, that this feels like a journal/diary entry. Touched alot on expression, chaos, pride, misunderstanding, desperation, carnage, anger, fear, addiction, etc-etc. I respect too that it slyly covers some deeper darker mental issues, that I think we all have at times in our lives. Word-choice & vocab was something I appreciated here. Format-wise, there were some noticable rhyme-stretches - and I felt like again it was ALOT of dense thoughts, wordy, & a little cluttered, so the flow was a little run-on... but I think that affect went into the overall *mind clutter* of this piece. I slightly agree again with above, that the middle sorta ran on, and lost my attention. Definitely personal, and deep, and I bet it was definitely something you felt while writing. Almost felt like more spoken word, than a rhymed rap.
My favorite parts were:
Quote:
"...Once you realise that when you fractionise strong opposed to the weak -
You paint a picture of so much immorality the canvas size exceeds -
Setting the standards high yet wonder why public image is lacked?
Well - hear confessions off a burden bearer and watch how grizzly you all act..."

Re: My Acceptance Speech.
This was probably the best drop I've read all day in my perspective. I observed your multis and rhyme schemes with careful measures and 85 percent of the time they really hit me. I give your multis an 8/10. your rhyme scheme an 8.5/10. My enjoyment through this was probably a 7.5/10. Story 9/10. Good job overall.
