Critical Acclaim from Readers:
Upon Reading Edgar All Poe 1st Place, The Literary Review Journal
"A well crafted piece of art."
"Both the descriptions and use of language here are very elaborate. The
poem shows intricate crafting, the style and subjects of course, are
reminiscent of Poe- this is not only a fitting homage, but stands on its
own, the word choices are exact and richly expressive."
"As if Poe came right off the page. This homage is literally perfect."
3rd Place Moontown Cafe Halloween Contest
2 Reader's Choice Nominations
"One of your best works. Beautiful 3 part movement. Flowed very nicely."
"WOW what a great poem, it flows like a small stream of water over the pebbles.
5 star write"
"A whole novel about a serial killer in three stanzas- amazing."
"The language and flow here is superb, the description detailed. This also has an air of mystery, almost Halloween-ish."
Literary Excellence Award, The Literary Review Journal
"One of my favorites. Love long poems."
"'Until once again, night revisits his kingdom and he is resurrected.' You know your subject. Are you reminiscing about an owl, or our immortal souls?"
"This is so precise and intense but a little mysterious. I love the passion!"
"Waking up dead in a morgue's freezer would feel that way."
"Raw, intense, gritty and "dark." But with powerful imagery and emotion.
This is short, but to the point, clear, stark but visceral and thought-
provoking.
"this gave me chills. dark, but well written."
"Awesome. This was great. I love it."
"very well written. enjoyed the read."
"I didn't know succumbing to one's death could be viewed with sensuality."
"Both the language (the word choices) and the rich imagery here is
exquisite! You have blended sound, description, meaning- all, in a way
that shows precise crafting."
"Read this with a glass of red wine, highly recommended and so is the poem."
