This was a nice battle.

I thought that both of you took a fairly simplistic approach to the topic that was there to be flipped creatively. Flight had a better overall verse because I thought it was more polished. He had some nice imagery and a good level of emotion.. and he managed to have it flow through smoothly with a decent use of syllables for each line. Something so small can ruin a verse, but I think that Flight took the time to maintain a consistent level and it helped his verse become more readable. DarkManner on the other hand, I thought that his verse had parts that read choppily and it really made it a bit more difficult for me to get into the verse and therefore into the topic. He had some nice imagery and emotion in it too, but I felt that he failed to maintain a level of consistency in his verse and that is what left him down.

Vote: Flight
