demons has control
soul lost by craving desire
absolute power
Good complimentary photo. The syllable count is correct. Good alliteration with control/craving. Good, clear message that is short, sweet and to the point.

An abundance of truth rings with this poem, I felt this 5-7-5 is whole in that you managed to capture the sentiment by emphasizing the tone with your word choice. Well done.

RJ: the picture, alone, tells a hell of a story! But, add the colors scheme and your right-on words, and you have a good contender for the contest. You go girl, livelylinda

Comment from ragamuffin
The picture is an excellent accompaniment to the poem, which fits well into the requirements of a 5-7-5. A very strong thought and message is conveyed. "Addiction;" it can be identified with so much making your piece quite relatable. Well chosen words to drive home your point. Well done!

Comment from Benny Beeharry
The addiction is really the demon, which one has to avoid or get rid of.
But the craving is not easy to control. It harder trying to get rid of it than beginning it.best thing is avoid the demon from the beginning than fighting him after,

Each and every one of us is addicted to something or someone; you clearly spelled out the hold it owns over us with minimal words but POTENT message. I liked this work very much and the message you are putting out "here".
