A work of fiction but unfortunately, for some, very much non fiction. This is a very sad story, and horrendous story, but one that keeps cropping up. You have written it with frightening description, it is very well written, and needs to be read. xsx

I am so glad to hear that you don't know this person, or worse, are this person but this story is all too familiar. It's difficult to imagine any jury convicting a young girl who has been driven to fear to such an extent that she trusts only a bullet to end her pain. Your poem is told exactly as a story should be with a beginning, a middle and an end and though this may sound obvious, not all stories in a poem manage to contain this requirement. Yours was both sad, poignant and powerful all at once and is sadly, topical. I know we are both competitors in this contest and I wish you all the best in the contest. The Blue Pixel

Hello Idamarty, my friend, a gravitating story that although, fictional as you said, but crimes/sins like these are facts of life in our society today; you did a great job in telling the story in poetic style with great rhyme and rhythm, thanks for sharing.

I am glad it is a fictional story though we all know too many children live with this abuse. Love the artwork you have chosen,it compliments your story perfectly. A good read.

Well then

I enjoyed this story / poem and think that you have created a fine entry for the contest... so much for a fair trial..I can't imagine that these stories are reality for some of these young children..The further we as a nation and a world stray from the teachings of the lord the more of these stories will be told. So sad too bad.....Ron

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is one of the most powerful and emotion filled piece of poetry that I have read in quite a while.

You bring the readers through the gamut of emotions suffered by Sarah. It is incredible that children have experience this abuse from a father. These ass wipes have no reason to draw another breath.

Great choice of artwork and a great contest entry. You have my vote for sure,,,,,,,,Jim

I REALLY enjoyed this poem. I immediately connected to the girl and her struggles. You do an incredible job bringing the reader in and then resolving the story. I think the beginning needs a bit more work on the flow, but over all the poem is really good! Great job!

I was deeply moved by this poem. The visuals did not get lost in the plot and vice verse. You have mixed story telling with vivid and moving images. My heart went out to the girl, yet I was uplifted at the end by the woman and mother she had become. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

Yours,
JT
