What do you think of this poem? I had to re-write a little. It almost got a perfect score before the re-write. Tell me what you think?
Unfinished Meal
A dirty kitchen filled with pots and pans
An unfinished meal of bratwurst and sauerkraut
A dead candle blown out by screams
Barry White softly in the background
Sweat dripping off folds of flab
A twisted heap lying together
The carpeted floor holds the secret
The aftermath glistening nearby
The angels are done singing
The birds lie still
In the original, the first 3 lines were;
A dirty kitchen
An unfinished meal
A dead candle
The professor wanted more detail in those lines. Does it work better now ? Could I have gotten a perfect 50 with the re-write instead of a 48 with the original?
