    Thank you, Jake. It was definitely out of my genre but I gave it a shot. Have a great day!

This was a curious challenge and you did as well as anyone
I think a bolder red font would enhance the entry
Best wishes

    One of these days I will learn to stop entering these blind contests. No one ever reads the story and I feel so bad when I write and get nothing back in return. Thanks so much Tom.

That's one way to release pain. Pick up a sharp dagger in the night and seal your bloody actions with a kiss. This black and red presentation is appropriately creepy and perfect for Friday the 13th. Best wishes in the contest.

    Actually, this creepy stuff is far from my genre and I think once was enough. I appreciate you taking the time to read and review. Have a great day@

This piece has such raw intensity. The words like "rip" and "drip" share such violence. The word "Kiss!" was so unexpected and didn't seem to fit. Until you read on... I can sense the pain and desire for relief in your words. Very powerful and well written!

Hello!

Very good interpretation of the prompt! The only thing I would suggest is to make your text a couple sizes bigger. The font and color combos are perfect, but my old eyes have to squint to read it. *laughs* Oh, and tell your son that I am glad he compelled you to write this! Speaking of being out of your realm, those of us who like to write a little in the darkness are nice, welcoming people. You have nothing to fear from us ... it's just our writing that's supposed to scare you. Good luck in the contest!

    With all your kindness, I could never think you were anything but nice, welcoming people. I have no fear.

    I was posted at Font 22 and I did increase it to 28...I thought I was the only blind one. LOL

    I thank you for your review and wish you well with the club.
    Have a great day!

This thirteen-syllable poem, Hurt Me No More, has the proper syllable count and seems to witness a murder/suicide with the knife providing the desired and undesired ends.

    totally out of my wheelhouse, that's for sure. But I'm told we must cross the line now and then...for me I will tip toe along the edge and hope that it's enough. Thank you for the review.
    Have a great day!

A lot of those poems will be posted today. It's amazing how this day affects people. What a wonderfully written poem--very sinister. Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.
