An excellent piece of writing, Dean. I love your macabre look at life. I have to admit, though - I find it hard to concentrate on the music and absorb your poem at the same time - just me, I guess.
I can listen to the music while I write my review, but not while I am trying to 'get' each of your delicious lines.

Lots of fine imagery here - though creepy, which I know is the way you like it.

Excellent rhyme skills and use of alliteration. Too many to mention, but I'm sure I caught most of them.

Pleasant Screams to you too!
Rose.

Very interesting poem. It feels like something I would read out of one of my Conan the Barbarian comics or some poetry that Sir Walter Scott would have written during the late 17 through early 1800's. The pictures also capture the feeling with attire being worn by, I guess, a King and a Queen. Kind of makes me feel like the Queen will get up and try to attack me or something. So, who are the pictures of?

This is really bleak and dark. You must have been in a deep trance before coming to write this. It is terrifically thrilling and gripping. The darkness is visible. Great intuition.

As I write this to you I am still enjoying the music. I cannot thank you enough for all that you give to us with your words. I haven't had this much fun so early in the morning in I don't know how long. Thank you Dean. Geez I don't even want to close this down.. the music will stop! Guess I'll come back later

This one unnerves me a bit because it's so dark - and because the writer is content with the darkness to the point of never wondering why. Still, it's entrancing and perfect for the season!

'Of Kings and Queens' is an exceptionally well-written and bone-chilling piece. Does death become them, or rather does it suit them? It was a pleasure to both read and review this talented poet's work. I'll now scream until the curse is lifted!

Hi Dean, I love every stanza in this well written poem, I was spellbound by your well chosen words and how you can so eloquently put them together to make a fascinating read. As usual the music I turn off, but that#s just me. You have a brilliant talent, in all aspects of presenting your work here on Fanstory.

well done
Mary
