The opening leaped
The story drew me in quick
The fade away shocked

Total subversion
Why did they make this movie
Yet, it was not bad

Winter blockbuster,
jittery, fierce excitement
shattered dreams, like falling snow

Oh my god, Yoda!
But man, what a slow ship chase
Rey and Luke were cool

Quiet excitement,
Cheering with a pounding heart,
Till the last moment.

Tears fall from my eyes
I've known him for all my life
Skywalker has died

It was good to see them
Luke and all his friends
It was strong and tempting
As I watched was powerful

Luke trying to kill Kylo Ren silently
Silent as can be then coldness evil
as bad as can be of the jedi

Luke facing Kylo at last
Boy was that scene fast
Luke dies, what a vast.
