A very well-written poem about the fun time around the campfire with the family and especially the story teller amazes everyone for hours with stories of old times and sometimes about a ghost or two.

Well done. Yes I love the conglomerate of of words, all deeply expressive, giving the impression of flawed humanity, oozing and ebbing, thrashing, gesticulating. All in this fine free verse work, well done, blessings, Roy

Fanstorian Dean Kuch would be proud of your Horror/Thriller free verse! You had me at the edge of my seat, and of course, I admired your use of alliteration. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

Beautifully intense poem. The careful use of alliteration sounded out the dance of the devil as it lured the reader into the tale. I especially loved the "porous soil" line that allowed a grave (no pun intended) imprint on the soul. Very creative. I enjoyed it.

Chilly reading just before I log off for the night. Maybe I should have stuck with just the marshmallows. Now I will be hearing raven heels clicking all night. Best wishes with your entry.

This poem strikes me as how campfire storytelling can terrorize children. They might sit down and enjoy the warmth and camaraderie, but the storyteller casts doubt and their souls are left to figure out on their own whether they will survive the night or story. That's probably why so many adults remember campfire stories from their childhood.

I am still shaken by the one where the couple drives quickly away from a scary evening on Lover's Lane only to find a hatchet lodged in the trunk of their car.

Great job. Of course, I could have missed the whole point. Yet, it did serve to make me think. Nice art, great title, wonderful poem.
