(913) Addiction Comments

A difficult topic well articulated. Loved the eloquent flow of the poem. 'Lies come easy, one after the other. The truth should be told, but that you must cover.' - Excellent!

Melvina, this is a great poem about any kind of addiction we get. It always cost it much more than we can afford. Great write and great words from a great lady. Top Marks from me. Thanks for sharing it my friend. David

I love this, Melvina...'a slave to a crude adoption' is an exceptional phrase, and speaks volumes. I can only hope that this is your muse speaking... Powerful poetry personified! Best wishes :) jack.

never allowing you to tell the truth - that is so sad yet so true. Moyax

A strong, well-crafted piece with good internal rhymes and pace. Wonderful work, Melvina.

A ten.. I enjoyed your wording.. A difficult message to convey, but done so eloquently from an adict's point of view.
