This is terrific and happens to be a movie and soundtrack I adore. They force me to sing this at karaoke all the time. HA! I, of course, wear a full mask AND a body suit!!!!
I love in the move when the broken down stage lights begin to light up one by one and the theater transforms to its former glory. WHOOO HOOOO! "Love me, that's all you have to do." Perfect line for a sappy romantic like myself. You've done a stellar job with this combing words with visuals to make a wonderful experience.

    LOL I would love to hear you sing the P. O. T. O songs in a full mask and body suit. The red body suit with the flowy cape? That one is my favorite. :) In the 2004 movie of the phantom, is so damn sexy, I don't understand what the hell was wrong with that dumb ass, Christine! What was she thinking! Erik was so sexy, all she needed to do was to put a paper bag over his head, the rest of him was perfect. Can you believe that?

    Thank you, Mike. I appreciate you and the review. *gypsy hugs*

Gypsy,
You have written a wonderful poem. This was really deep. A perfect movie, play, you have picked. I think everyone can relate which is why we all love it. The good, the bad, and the ugly of life. Perfect poem.
Love,
Darlene

Outstanding addition here, Gypsy. I am sure Dean will like it as much as I do, if not more. I have seen the stageplay and was so thrilled with the music.
I like the way you made your presentation, particularly defing the people with colored font.

Blessings. Bob

I enjoyed this bit of a story Gypsy. It has a passion that is explicit yet somewhat refrained and innocent. You do a lovely job of painting the picture for your reader. I also enjoyed the format as well. Good solid writing. xoxo Kiwi

Wow, Gypsy, great job with this poetic creation. I love Phantom of the Opera. I had a chance to see it performed in London about a decade ago. It was awesome and so is your Gothic freeverse! :-)

This is a great presentation. Your selection of pictures is perfect for each grouping of lines. The black background adds to the mystery and also a bit of darkness to the poem. The 2 colors of text were a great way to make the transitions to the characters as they spoke or to their thoughts. Your lines flow smoothly. This is a great addition to the book.

Good job and thanks for sharing.

Excellent artworks that complement your poem perfectly. It is a dark free verse about the characters in the Phantom of the opera. Lots of alliteration and a nice story about a love that can't be.
