The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

The poem "Hot Summer Nights" effectively uses the concrete imagery of a hot, restless night to explore abstract concepts like life goals and decision-making. The structure of the poem, with its lines growing longer until a point and then shortening again, mirrors the ebb and flow of a sleepless night.

However, the poem could benefit from more specific imagery. Instead of general terms like "sweating" and "hard to breathe", consider using more specific, sensory details that can make the reader feel the heat and restlessness.

The transition from the physical experience of the hot night to the introspection about life's goals is a bit abrupt. Consider using a bridge or a transition to make this shift smoother.

The last line "Before the heat takes me back to my dreams" is a bit ambiguous. If the heat is keeping the speaker awake, it's unclear how it also lulls them back to sleep. Consider revising this line for clarity.

The poem could also benefit from a more consistent rhythm or meter to enhance the musicality of the piece. As it stands, the rhythm is somewhat irregular, which can disrupt the flow of the poem.

Finally, consider exploring the theme of the poem more deeply. The poem touches on introspection and decision-making, but it doesn't delve into these topics in depth. Consider using more lines or stanzas to explore these ideas more fully.

You surprise me yet again.
I see the the heat in the first three lines.
The scene is one of someone sitting by the window in a bedroom
The air is damp and heavy and the sweat beads up on his forehead.
His face is mobile and expressive as he imagines his life of the future.
Nicely done!
~ Geez.
