The Nine-Eyed Wolf
#2
Hello mahjong - almost every line is inverted in an attempt to make it rhyme. It ends up making the entire poem unreadable.
The only poetic device I can spot is rhyme, which has the above problem.
The lines are of irregular meter - not a deal breaker in itself, but the irregularities themselves appear to be the result of carelessness rather than art.
