I like the use of images, locusts, and the inability to release the pen until the fight is resolved; my only critique is that the meter on some lines feels like it skips a beat, which can throw off reading flow

i mostly never write poetry this way

i just wanted to switch up a bit.

I like this almost rise in suspense in the first two lines which is actuated by the rhyme.

The only critique I have is in the 4th line - the idea of demons trapped inside... is quite common - you could perhaps further expand on the saying. This can relate back to the "overthinking" because the exaggeration of the demons can be seen as this.

I like the idea of a locusts swarm, maybe an intentional reference to Exodus and the swarm of locusts.

The way you word your poem is quite unique and makes it fun to read

#

The rhyme is well put but seems abit forced
