I would say the little man showed his sorrow and earned grace. Stark writing! This should grab attention. Will read on.

Excellent ... I'd like to think so but on this occasion I determined the individual to feel remorse even though it was too late ... pitiful !

I love your use of dialogue in this well penned story in a poem. Good use of the verse "for the wages of sin is death..."
as pivot line. Nice ending. Great message. Well done:)

Interesting horror poem. I liked how you played with pleasure or pain. Yes, if you ask the devil for pleasure, you will just get worse pain. LOL!!!-Squid

Comment from Bryana
I don't think I would like to enter that shop. If I choose pleasure the pain might come in later.
Very well written poem, It was a pleasure reading it.

Comment from Hitcher
Tis a very fine line between pleasure and pain, the pleasure is the drug that screams again and again but the pain, OH the pain, one will never be the same. Cool little slice of darkness my friend, I like!

I loved your poem. Totally enjoyable. You painted an image of hell that resembles Las Vegas quite nicely if you ask me. Excellent narrative poem. :)

You might have to read c-Lucas's review for that answer....LOL...!
Comment from Deejharrington
Well done. You could really take this and expand it into a short story. Too many people would choose pleasure, unwilling to see the price that is always paid,in the end.

Wow, this is a great poem laced with irony and a healthy dose of the supernatural. I have to say your use of read for text, and the graphics, in general, enhanced your theme and seem good choices to me. Well done! Bev

Comment from MikoAmaya
And really, that's the question of life. Too often, people choose the pleasure, forgetting that the consequences will cause far more pain than the pleasure one gains. Great poem. The flow was a little choppy, but not too much. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent, I try to work on that....not to make it choppy but to make it unchoppy....is that the only reason for the four stars...?
-
Well, that's the only reason I can consciously pick out. I try to save five (and six) stars for poems I find perfect. If you do fix the flow, let me know and I'll re-read and most likely change it to five stars. :)

MMMMM...some ideas would be helpful as I'm not well educated and some people tell me I do have a problem with choppiness...hints pleeeaaaase....!
