Dear Alcreator Litt Dear, it is always a pleasure to review your work. You take an idea and make it your own in your own created unique style which I think is pretty brilliant. This one attests to just that. Keep it up!

Overall,...very interesting, narrative poem that has a big message. Love it! I do feel that the word "name" is repeated too often (especially at the end of the poem), which dilutes the power a bit. Maybe you could replace a few with synonyms? Just a thought! Keep up the beautiful work!

King wise learnt his wisdom through trialling a different experience and learning the value of a name above a number. Man was made to be called a name. Man was given the honour of naming animals. Numbers are too impersonal and bereft of relationship. Thank you for sharing in your own unique way.

An attention capturing title and picture. A pretty good opening stanza. So is the second and third stanza. The fourth fifth and six paragraph was well written. Good ending. Overall pretty good

This is a clever acrostic which is fun but also gives one a reason to think and consider the point of this writing. I enjoyed your picture choice as well. All the best to you.

I read the comments as directed before I read the poem. But I did not need to. The poem speaks for itself. Numbers do not replace names, especially for God.

I very much enjoyed this whimsical poem. I have pondered the idea before of everyone being known by a number rather than a name. It would be impossible for me to remember someone by their number but I like remembering names. I think your poem is both clever and thought-provoking and I appreciate this fun and well-written acrostic. Thank you for posting it.

I love your creative flair. Who on earth thinks up these sorts of pieces. It's clever, meaningful and so well written anyone could understand the message. Really loved this piece. Marie x

This was a great idea, what if we were known as a number. However, I found some of the lines didn't quite flow. I understand that you had put notes on stating that less punctuation was intentional, but I feel some lines needed it.
Such as 'Number replaces a name with a given serial number that he enrolls on kingdom's register'.
The artwork is perfect. Thank you for sharing.

-Nice artwork and
presentation, Alcreator.
-You wrote a good poem
about a creative topic.
-The progression of
ideas is very good, as
you begin with the premise,
and soon the king realizes
this wasn't such a good idea.
-A good concluding line, too.
-I enjoyed your poem.
