A 5-7-5 poem18 total reviews
Comment from Alex Rosel
You've selected great image for this 5-7-5 horror contest. Your poem is full of imagery as well:
hollowed [eye] sockets;
blood flows;
paling cheeks;
staining life.
Nicely crafted and presented.
Wishing you the best of luck with the contest judging committee {smiles}.

Those are very strong choices of words, Kahpot. The "hollowed sockets" echo in the word "blindly" in the final line. I'm sure Dean would be very happy with your poem!

Comment from Ashley Weigand
Well that's horrifying. Good job though, not sure if I have any criticism. While it may be short it is very much to the point- uneasily terrifying. It is hard with such short formats to actually achieve the intended result but I can tell you that those few lines did indeed make my stomach turn. Great for the contest, good luck!

Hello Kahpot, a timely 5-7-5 poem. Your poem is filled with scary Halloween imagery. Of note: blindly staining life...good finish.
Well-chosen artwork. As this is a contest entry, I wish you good luck.

Comment from Janetsue
This is an excellent spooky 5-7-5 horror poem. The picture is wonderfully awful! (Sometimes an oxymoron works out well for saying just what you want.) lol Best wishes in the contest, my friend!

It is a scary short verse for sure. Your macabre illustration also helps your vision.
Good use of horror related words in your contest entry.
Good luck in the voting.

True horror is depicted here. The least words can say the most when presented with the right picture, such as you have chosen here. Your presentation gives the message you intended.
