whoa.....amazing poem! you won the contest with good reason! awesome awesome awesome _10_ love starr
A good effort Mathew, I was attracted to read your work by Dustin's comtest. I like the flow of this poem on the fight. I like the title too. One typo 'demons'. Well done on winning the comp. A good effort. Tai
wow, what an amazing poem. no wonder you won Dustin's contest. good job!

This is an extraordinarily good poem. I now look forward to reading more of your work. I found you through the Poetry Workshop. Philippa Lane
WOW! ! This is a great poem.You are so talented. Keep up the good work All the best Love Becky
