Can Death Come Calling If You Don'T Have A Telephone? Comments

This could be a poem of fear yet your description of this cold lonely room has been so well described. Read your biography with interest.

Great imagery and onomatopoeia

Poverty a terrible state that sometimes forces you to end your life.Beautifully penned.thanks

Poverty and deplorable condition of living well depicted in the poem. A nice piece of poetry, well articulated and insightfully penned with conviction. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.

Loved the title but was disappointed in the poem. I guess it's mostly because I don't like poems about suicide. The poem itself has many good qualities, including perfect rhyming. Congratulations on having it selected as Poem of the Day.

Incredibly sustained suspense in simple deceptively clever lines, a touch of genius and terribly entertaining, thus I will read this to my daughters with a smile before releasing the lines into their rhythmic rhyming.10+++

A well constructed POE-m, indeed...Nicely done ~FjR~

Incredible thematization of penury from where hedonism is cherished

Hi Eliza! Good reminder that people are still trapped in poverty in this country still! (10) ! Thad
