A very well-written rhyming poem about the dangers of drug use. Once we start using it, it is near impossible to quit without specialized help or stay hooked untI'll death.

Comment from Susan X Smith
I enjoyed reading this poem. While most of the rhymes are conventional I thought that "water" and "daughter" was a good one. The topic is heartbreaking. Thanks for sharing.

This is a great creation for the Rhyming Poem contest. Your rhythm and rhyme are fantastic - I especially liked "water" and "daughter". Very nice job. Good luck in the contest! Cheryl

Thanks Colin, very much for your kind review. I need to point out though, that this is all my own work, albeit a poem I wrote 10 years ago and have pretty much rewritten it, not just tweaked! Thanks again xoxoxo

No worries Colin, all good. I don't want to be disqualified or accused of plagiarism which is why I mentioned it! xoxoxo
Comment from karenina
Kudos poetess. You've written a saga of the addict that cuts like a knife into the social heart of the matter. Some look down with disdain when in fact this is an illness. So hard to find recovery! So many good souls lost!--Karenina

Our town librarian's daughter just died a month ago of an overdose of heroin...27 with an eleven year old son. Chasing that high! It's an epidemic!--Karenina

That is a bloody pity, and even more so that she had an 11 year old son :(
-
The granmom is raising him...as his father is also an addict and, in fact is the one who introduced her daughter to drugs... It's heartbreaking!--K
Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This tells a story about the lady had transformation of activities through her name, though she lost everything in the process, left an identity a numbered tag; well said, well done.

"She Had A Name", is an exceptionally well-written and heart-wrenching piece. It was a privilege to read and review this talented poet's work. To me this is a six, but unfortunately I don't have any left. I look forward to seeing your next post.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I liked your clever references here: "Major Tom" a Bowie song and "Lucy" The Beetles, the trips on drugs are not worth the life long damage they cause, fortunately I never tried them as I may have become a victim of them too, I liked your rhyming, but most of all I enjoyed your sentiment here, love Dolly x

Comment from Iza Deleanu
Wow beautiful image that complements your writing. Even the poem is very sad, I really appreciate the clean cut of your sentences and the musicality between the line. The conclusion is a stairway to heaven"And so the metal slab and sheet
cocoons her body, bruised and beat
a life concluded in a bag
Identity: a numbered tag". Thank you for sharing and welcome back, I like your new name:)
