This work has reached the exceptional level

This is a strong and powerful poem. It aptly describes the overwhelming sense of loss and frustration that takes over when addiction kicks in. It's rough watching others go through a 'drugs phase', but understanding the lure helps one to sympathize....

In few words,you capture the power of addiction. Soul lost by craving desire is a line that sums up the struggle with addiction and the consequences. Excellent use of words.

This is a really great poem that fully expresses the power of addiction. I am a recovering addict, so I can relate to this very well. Excellent 5-7-5 poem. Five stars.

This is a 5-7-5 poem that tells what it is, sending the visual image of how drugs can control a human, where souls are stolen slaved to the master devil, the drugs. I do believe the invention of modern society to cure boredom, is a devil incarnate where those afflicted, forget reason and their families and becoming the devils themselves. Thanks for sharing this, God bless.

Vivid and frightening images of the demon with absolute power because of the craving desire that is so hard to satisfy. A lost soul has no hope, or very little against this overwhelming creature. The picture intensifies your message even more.

Good luck in the contest.

This was a thought provoking poem about addiction. The 5-7-5 syllable count is in good order. Your message is clear. The second line is the one that sticks out to me. Best wishes in the contest, and Merry Christmas.
