Hey there, Boogie nights:

I see that you won first place in this contest also. I actually joined this contest too. They gave me 3rd prize in this one but I was tied with some other Poets, who also for had only 2 votes.

Your poem is wonderful. You did very well and it was a very relatable situation.

I checked out your portfolio. You have won many contests. I will go back to check out more of your poetry, a little later. WONDERFUL!

Thank you for your kind words. I've had so much fun entering contests since joining Fanstory, lots of compition though. Up until now the only people I shared my poems with were my husband and children, and of course they always liked them, but it's nice to share them with other writers who will tell you what they really think. I think your entry was wonderful,I'm lucky I won! I also. Really like your poem USELESS. I really like all of your work. Thanks for reading.

I admired your wolf in sheep's clothing image to establish the mood for this poem about the downside of love. Your "wolf" and "willing sheep" metaphor is very effective along with your rhymes. Congratulations on your contest win- Joan

Excellent

Enjoyed your poem very much, suspect it's born from past experience. But you told the story well, and of course as we know love is not always 'blue sky and roses'.
Good job and well done.

There is nothing worse in life than having your trust betrayed.
Your poem has the pain of betrayal all over it.
I hope this is about someone other than you.
I really liked the poem, not the message, just the writing

Wow!
That's one hurt lady!
This is very good, I particularly like the wolf/ sheep comparison.
Anger and bitterness alongside triumph over the hurt comes across really well.
This is a good contender for the contest,
I wish you well : )

It is interesting as it partakes of the fairytale genre. I wonder if it would be more affective with some of the 'yu' ronouns left out> just a thought. Please take with a grain of salt, you could say 'hopeful wife' at the end to get in a hiton a rhyme

I have so been down that road and it not a friendly road at all. It hurts to give everything you have to someone then they just use and abuse. I really enjoyed the read. thank you for sharing and best wishes in the contest. NB
