This poem is definitely chilling as a horror poem should be. The AABB rhyming remains consistent with use of lots of creepy words. The end was surprising as many thought ran through my mind about who this monster could be.

A very well written poetic entry in this horror poem contest! I guess if you were to personify suicide, you would have to have to say it resembles this! This was well written, with vivid, descriptively expressive articulate language! Well done, good luck in the comp! Blessings, Roy.

This is a definite second read in order to reap and ingest the sobering thought. So well written, dripping with the life blood of an expert master (or) mistress of horror. Good luck in the contest, sounds like a winner to me.

    Thank you, DALLAS, and I wish it looked like a winner to more voters as it is getting trounced in the booth right now. But, at least you feel it's a winner, and that is enough for me, my dear friend. Thanks for the six stars and your generous support. I truly appreciate it!

Well, Mr. Author: There are no Author notes, its more than 3 stanzas long, it rhymes just fine and there certainly isn't any humor within. This was really scary and the ending totally surprised me, was not expecting suicide. Thought it was some seductress demon, preying on men. Fantastic write and I'm thinkin' this could be a winner! livelylinda

    Thanks, livelylinda, and I am glad that you think it's a winner, at least. Unfortunately, the majority of voters do not happen to agree with you as it is performing pretty poorly in the voting booth. But, as long as you believe it is a winner, that's good enough for me, my dear friend. I appreciate your very kind comments and those shiny six stars!

    Thanks again!

This is super horrific and provides a grisly, gut-wrenching characterization of this ultimately evil ghoul with terrifying plans for those he who choose to end their lives.

I think this deserves a six star. I hate horror stories, but I was impressed how you used suicide as a catalyst to write this. Very well thought out and I think a real great contender in the contest.

    Thanks so much for the kind and encouraging review and six star rating, Drew. I appreciate you giving it a shot even though it isn't exactly your cup of tea.

    As far as the contest goes, it is getting killed in the voting booth, so I would hardly call it a "contender". But it was sure a lot of fun to write!

    Thanks again.

She is your horror, he will torture you before she kills you. She will deliver your soul to the devil. She warned you, so did others You failed to listen. She used only a little deceit to get you in to her lair. Great work. Good luck with the contest.
