Dark and dismal. I found this soul-searing poem to describe how someone might feel if abandoned by everyone, hoping for an end to the suffering.
Your words are sharp and cruel... painting a picture of how one might die in the desert.
Excellent.

Sorry it left me a little stiff.
Though it would make sense that Ichabod would feel something like this he was a stubborn and selfish soul.
Regardless I can hear some of your voice in your work.
Keep writing and find your voice. It won't make you rich but it is very satisfying.

An interesting poem about a Bible character we hear very little about. Wonderful to hear that you are reading the Bible, and nice that you can imagine what a character might think.

An interesting and all around nicely presented piece this. The Bible has always been way over my head but I am going to check out Samuel 1 and then a'Googling I will go for Ichabod after reading this because I like to learn something new every once in a while. Just imagine because of you I might become an Ichabod scholar.

Thanks for entertaining me this afternoon - Dinah

So, I lay(lie) in wait for the night.
Hoping these demons of the desert
Will end the pain that I have endured my entire life.

Hmmm I guess I missed him until now too Justin but I will find out.
