Mia,
I like your poem on vengeance and hurt; I have felt this way before.
I do think it's a great poem, but I found that empathy, forgiveness and compassion work best.
Great rhymes.
Good luck in the contest.
Blessings,
Cindy

Comment from Liz O'Neill
I've learned something about myself. My favorite genre is revenge movies. But I do not think of revenge for any of my abusers. I realize they were acting out what they needed to for me or them or both of us in this lifetime. But I vicariously root for the victim getting revenge.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
There is something a bit threatening and scary in this right and those who have vengeance in their hearts often end up unhappy.
One suggestion for this line:
(Alone) and cold, I became hostile
Love Dolly x

That is very true. Vengeance can take you to dark unhappy places.
Comment from royowen
You've certainly put this in a different style rhyming poetry, but that's OK, it didn't specitfy, so I think it's fine, thematically good. A really interesting format, well don, good luck, blessings Roy
Typo (along) and cold. Alone? 2: one by one(,) single(,) file.

My fingers have a mind of their own lol and my brain inserts what I know it should be. This is why other eyes agree so needed. Thanks. And just so you know we had a wee bit of snow over the night.

I can't say I relate to this poem, however it very plainly voices a desire for vengeance. I hope it is fictional for I would hate to know someone actually experienced this. Thanks for sharing

Comment from kahpot
Vengeance can be good if done correctly, "along and cold..." should this be (alone and cold...)? I liked the intent and flow of your poem, an excellent read****kahpot

Comment from Kaiku
I will make a couple suggestions.
Rhyming scheme makes great sense and done well. I would eliminate in the 3rd stanza, first line, the words `for me` and let the flow remain a little more smooth by just saying, `Death will be decided at my trial`
Last stanza first line I would suggest `single-file`
And possibly the `a` is not needed in the line ending with `bad aftertaste`
Just a couple of thoughts.
