Good luck in the writing prompt contest or whatever it is. I like the poem, I find it very sad and forlorn, and you have hit the habits of society right on the head. But it is very sad and touches the heart. Thanks for sharing.

A very well written poem with excellent rhyme. I think I could do with a bit of her potion from time to time. I wish you luck in the competition. Cheers Jen.

Comment from estory
The effect of these measured rhythms and echoing rhymes in neat couplets was one of listening to an incantation, so I think it was good use of the form to frame the theme. Nice images, those classic images of shadows and moon, potions, witches and ghosts, to send that agreeable creeping up the back. estory

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, Memory Eraser, uses the required words and supplants the world famous alcohol with the phantom elixir which renders the mind too weak to mull over bad memories. Nice and dark tone that may even be relatable.

Comment from flylikeaneagle
Mystery writer: I like how she can cast a spell with her beauty
and rhymes. She must be a depressed poet who lost her love.
Maybe, the muse needs to do some homemade cooking. Great
descriptions with the drink that makes him disappear. Her thoughts
are in a box...she must truly be grieving. Good contest entry, use
of words and rhymes.

Comment from bob cullen
This is really good. I loved the lost-love story you blended into the poem along with the suggested witchery. It was so appropriate to the splendidly chosen picture. The poem rolled so nicely one didn't really see the slotting in of the required words. A great entry and I wish you well in the contest.

Eerie. I love it. You did a great job incorporating the words and the picture chosen is great. Leaving open a window a bit . . . witch or not? I like that. This is very intense and creative, dark, soulful. Great job and good luck!
