Hi! I'm pretty new to poetry and i only got a C in my English GCSE but I just wanted to try stuff, if you know what would make this poem better please do leave me a comment (this is pretty embarassing when being compared to professionals haha) But what i was going for was as the story continues, the more I (the author) understands the value of life and starts to use more words like "My son" and "Familiar" in oppose to the beginning to the poem when I say things like "He's" and "Only"/"Again"/"Slavery." Sorry if there's some mistakes in their or parts that dont make sense, if you spot some, do tell me please! :) None of these events happened to me, it's just an idea.
