You've spent a lot of time fine turning your murder skills, and you have chapter after chapter of full proof ideas on how best to get it done. Thanks for sharing.

This is a weird form of poetry. The story it tells is very humorous, and I enjoyed reading it. The artwork is perfect. I wish you worlds of luck in the contest.

    I looked for a display of dissolving chemicals, But lye is all I could find. It's as if they don't trust us or something! Thanks for the read, Karen :-)

    I thank you for the review. Thing is I missed reading some of the rules. It was supposed to be stanzas of four and, abcb rhyme. So, I had to go back to the drawing board. I hope you like this one too! Thanks again. Karen

Hi Karen. Very good writing on this loop poem. I'm assuming Fred is not someone you know. If he was, you surely can't stand him. Very good job. Good luck in the contest.

And a good one it was too. It took me a while to catch on that it was a loop poem, and that's the best kind--when it doesn't sound so forced. Now, wherever did you come up with such a ghastly theme for this poem?

I've got to hand it to you...

*** ADDENDUM TO MY REVIEW BELOW: True to Karen's determination, she rewrote the original poem to abide by the rhyme formatting rules and good for her for doing so! I like this one just as much! Maybe better!

You are the ONLY one on site that I know can make murdering (men) somehow humorous and with such imagination. I riffed an idea to you using the correct rhyme format--

But I see from you comments you've decided to let this one fly (and it's great, so I understand!)

Unless the committee is asleep, you won't make it to the judging...meh, that's okay as long as you're happy with it!

Poor Fred, he's anonymous to you NOW!

:)

    Thanks so much. Others like it better too! Maybe because I put in the additional effort:-)

Fred is one unlucky guy if he needs to be dead. I guess lye would work as well as anything to get rid of the body. Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. Good luck with the contest.

    I just reread and I like it much better. I think you got this.

    Thank you so much for rereading it. It was tough redoing it. But, Karenia would not let up. Trust another Karen to be Pushy! :-)

    Maybe it goes with the name. LOL

"Fred Gets Himself Dead
I Need to Kill Fred" Of course you do; what could be more obvious? Do you ever consider murdering a Francine? Or Fredericka? Or Franchesca? Or are there not bad women out there that sorely need killing?
"Free to his acid wash him" Delete 'his'.
Good luck in the contest.

So, you are an assassin and Fred is your "assignment"?

I don't know, Karen. If I were spending a night in your home, I think I'd sleep with one eye open.

Well Karen,
Fred's gone and done it now. What did he do to you- cheat, steal something, use your clothes to cross dress? The dirty scum bag. His last name wasn't Flintstone was it? I hope not. I see that you're going to use lye. I've heard of using lime to cover a body, but not lye. I know it's caustic. Would it dissolve poor Fred? What about the bones. Have you got a big dog? I think I'm glad that we're living so far apart. Well done gal.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

    I know from Watching " Blacklist" that you need a combination of chemicals, and then a body is turned into soup, and moves effortlessly down the drain. I thank you for the review.

    I used to like watching The Blacklist. James Spader was the best. I never liked him as an actor until he and William Shatner starred in Boston Legal. We couldn't get enough of him then.
