A very pointed write, equally Sharp as it is. The poet wields her proverbial pen against the menace of tobacco. Wonderfully accurate and penetratingly powerful. Loved it. Full score

This should be required reading for every twelve year old who is thinking about starting to smoke. Well said, Roopa! Excellent images and a timely topic. Fine poem.
