Getting Philosophical

I should have died many times in my life,
They call me the Cat, I had nine lives,
But now Im sadly down to five, all from drugs and robberies Im lucky Im alive.
Philosopher of the Criminal Mind,
Lights blinding while in darkness,
A simple purest seeking truth,
But Im drowning in dark waters,
Sometimes I stop and ask myself,
But still come with No answers,
Until My maggots turn into Flys,
Only 'GOD' will have those answers.

Review Request (Direction): 
What did you think of my title?
What did you think of the rhythm or pattern or pacing?

Is the internal logic consistent?

Ive Collected many different types of poetry topics that may or may not appeal to everyone. Please, could you tell Me if the topics im writing about are what readers are enjoying in your opinion.

that you will see that from the number of comments and critique you gather on your work. No comments or critique? You didn't capture their attention. Only mistake I see is that you spelt flies wrong. Good luck in the contest.~ Geezer.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

A good look inward at a past life. Nice job.
