Intriguing bit of intrigue here. Rhyme scheme spot on, but syllable counts are off in some lines: The structure consists of 12 lines with line structures of 2-3-4-6-8-10-10-8-6-4-3-2 . World - 1 syllable, should be 2 All furled - 2 syllables, should be 3 been taken over By the world security rover - 9 syllables, should be 6 the eye in the sky watches us all - 9 syllables, should be 8 the national security state crystal ball - 12 syllables, should be 10 puts us all under its cosmic pall - 9 syllables, should be 10 from its secret headquarters mall - 7 syllables, should be 8 the red cosmic sky eye ` the eye in the bright sky - 6 syllables, should be 4 watches us all - 4 syllables, should be 3 the wall Let the creativity flow from your soul!
