My two cents is only one opinion. Overall impressions:A good opening with plenty of action to grab my attention. Good descriptions with very realistic dialogue both helped take the reader into this tale.
The twist at 'how my grand pappy met his fate' caught me unprepared. A nice ending for chapter one.
Chapter two was delightful even though personally I'm not a big fan of zombies. Ending with a bit of mystery to get the reader thinking.
Kelchworth thank you for sharing this work it has been a joy to read it.
Suggestions: Nicely done however a good reread and edit never hurts.
Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter:A political poem in a unique original style.
Well written in a realistic yet humorous style. A great idea for this sign of the times historical tale.
I like the realistic yet humorous style. Consider shorting some of the longer sentences to keep a more uniform structure, as they seem to linger. A wonderful work however for me it seemed to ramble on a bit toward the end. Kanishka Sanyukt thank you for sharing your poem.

Hi Silvern I came across this poem while random reviewing.
I hope you will find this feedback helpful.
My impressions of the poem: "Last Chance" by Silvern
Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter:
Seems like a good poem, it is just written in a language that I don't quite get. To me it reads like it was picked from the middle missing the introduction which leaves me guessing.
A sport poem that seems to be ranting about an unpopular rule or decision.
Sports fans especially the hardcore ones do seem to have a secret language that only they understand. I have to admit I don't get it.
This work does indeed have a catchy tone that sticks in your head. Silvern thank you for sharing your poem.

Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter:A seat with insomnia is a gothic dark style free verse poem. Well written with deep undertones. It feels like this was written at a low point in the author's life.
Artistic Voice and Imagery: I see the image of a dark mysterious realm where nothing at all makes sense and sleep is forbidden. The birth place of misery where one can't get out of bed.
Grammar, Spelling and Mechanics: I can find no problems at all with the grammar spelling or mechanics of this deep work.

Well written with great descriptions that easily take the readers straight into the tale.
Short and to the point with plenty of action and a nice twist at the end. That seems to be the way the modern reader likes things.
Kelchworth thank you for sharing this work it has been a joy to read it.
Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter: As they have just now discontinued making the penny this seems like a very appropriate subject for the time. So they say it cost almost 4 cents to make a 1 cent penny. Only in the good old' USA. At least I feel like most countries would have shot it down when the cost exceeded the product.
'Head or tail I don't understand my scope or range.'
This is a well written free verse poem decades ahead of its time.
Artistic Voice and Imagery: 'Kindness and ignorance both work themselves out in the end, like the flipped sides of a Lincoln penny that you don't get a choice in common.'

Seems like you met the prompt requirements well, I hope you won the contest. 240 words is not a lot to work with yet what a entertaining and delightful tale. Even a slight bit of mystery at the end.

Form, Format, Rhyme and Meter:This poem shows that it was written in the uncertain time of the pandemic when life as we knew stopped. Masks had to be worn. Social distancing, businesses closed, Holidays canceled even the skies had no traffic. That brief time that seemed to linger forever where the whole world had come to a stop.
This well worded poem takes me back to that point in time that will forever be carved in my memory.
Artistic Voice and Imagery: I see the image of a world that has stopped and fell back over a hundred years in time. The people in solitude and isolation redefine everything they were ever taught. Slowly a different world emerges and works hard to make up for that lost time.
