Well Pam I really enjoyed reading this poem. Although long but very insightful and interesting wording for the reader. Each lined lured me into what would happen next and although you didn't say for sure if Dawn escaped or not. I love this piece, very intriguing for reading. Thanks for sharing.

And then she smote him on the head
and left old fishboy lying dead...

Oh my land, Pam this is a gripping poem, and most frightening. Your metre and rhyme perfect to relay a note of danger to take care about online dating and phony profiles.

Very nicely done and not too long at all.

A crime thriller poem, WOW. Loved the balance and the rhyme though the last line didn't quite work.
I wouldn't worry about the length, it demanded my full attention right though. It was clever and original and for that it deserved the five stars

In my opinion, this was indeed an epic write, outstanding in narration and its suspenseful telling, a clear message in flawless rhyming rhythm - bold and exciting, an "Exceptional" reminder of always present danger, especially online...

Wow, this didn't feel like a poem at all, Pam. I was enthralled and sadly, hoping she'd gotten away :( This happens far too often for my liking and your poem here brings the travesty to life - makes it real! The words, the cadence, the strong emotion/conviction, the presentation all flow and are a cohesive blend of life, sadness, and writing. I cannot say I enjoyed reading this, but I do enjoy doling out a 6 for your well crafted, superbly rhymed, extremely timely piece of poetic mastery.
Thanks for sharing.

A very realistic and yet very scary poem... You bring into light how 'risky' online dating is..and IF that avenue of dating is pursued is perferred, one must be EXTREMELY careful, cautious and meet them in public places.. your poem was suspenseful and we'll developed.. your story line was really thought out well, and it held my interest the entire poem.. plus, it has really captured the importa ce of 'beubg aware' not only of your circumstances and surroundings, but to keep informed..

Hi Pam. A good story of the dangers of on-line dating. We never know the person we are dealing with. A challenge in this day of not meeting through friends or face-to-face. Your poem is well rhymed and tells an entire story. Happens all too often. Good job. Marilyn

Oh what a scary ending. I hoped she would have gotten free. But your poem was meant to be a warning so it makes sense to end it there. Great rhyming and meter throughout and very important message!
