An excellent response to the Pix Challenge J... this one is so good and appropriately identifies and labels the problems... drug kings, handouts, poverty and darkness. A really good write.

This sounds very sad and unfortunate. It is reality though that many of us have to walk out on a daily basis. The only help or hope that I can see in this darkness is the light of Almighty God changing people's hearts. I like the message of this and enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done!

You have done a great job in writing this poem. The last half is exceptional.
I have a couple of suggestions to help with the flow in my point of view. I hope you don't


where all on earth seems right.... where all on earth seems to be alright ... more syllables are required for flow.

I feel the stress of yet another killing ... here I think yet should be removed

aware of people who feel the defeat. ... aware of people who've succumbed to defeat

Just a couple of ideas I am throwing out there.

I have enjoyed the read for your club entry for the "Night In The City" event in "Pix This Challenge Group"

I could easily see these thoughts going through the detectives head as he patrolled the streets.

Hi Jim. Your city poem is well rhymed and speaks to some social issues. To dare to walk the streets at night is not the best idea no matter where you go. Marilyn

    Marilyn it is so true how so many cities night life is simply not the "walk in the park: of yesteryear.

I think this is a well written and well rhymed verse telling of the dark side of the city at night.
Well written, the story is clear.
I think you've met the "Pix This Challenge" quite nicely.
Well done.

This was as chilling as a murder mystery. A wonderful side to this pix challenge. I thought he reminded me a bit of Dick Tracy. Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the poetry prompt.

The plight of the homeless seems too big of a problem to fix. All we can do is support the programs that help them, but you're right...there needs to be a more choices. I like true poetry.

Well done with this poem. Oh yes indeed, the western world is alight with drugs, our country is not immune to its danger either. I don't the eastern nations escape. Beautifully written my friend, you've done an excellent job with this pentametric poem, and it's aabb rhyming, well done, blessings, Roy
