Easy to chew, but I think the constant beating on musical terms becomes too predictable, and might bore an advanced reader for sure. In my opinion, you should view this as a work in progress, and see if you can add a more subtle touch to it, a bit of unpredictability.
Technically, there is certainly nothing to quibble about. It is just a matter of suddeness and a bit of surprise, which I think would add greatly to the overall quality of the piece.
here is nice. and if i was a listener of classical music, i could offer something. nevertheless, it seems to be a piece that reflects a particular mood. say for instance, if it was ACDC or any other rock group, its tone would thump a bit harder. aside from that, if the walls started to shake, and pictures started to fall, there might be a good laugh. would you expect anything less from someone that likes to be sarcastic and humorous from time to time.
Very similar to what a middle school student did a few years ago. That one received a passing grade. I guess yours does, too, although you are well past middle school.
Being a Jazz musician I feel like this is old home week and consider it a distinct delight to review this poem. I, of course loved and got a kick out of Mr. Sack's musical terms and great sense of humor. Bravo Mr. Sack!

Delightful. Perhaps I am possessed of a pedestrian mind, but I thought it perfect. Although I respect the opinions of others who have commented, I did not have any problems with this piece. Well done!
