Clever mini horror show enacted on a blood red stage! Great rhyme! I'm a little slow, so had to read twice before I got it! I DO love this but punctuation might add clarity, or is punctuation not used in haiku type poems! Great job, good luck!

A carefully worded poem which is chillingly succinct. In fact what is unsaid and left incomplete leaves much to the imagination. The best horror is that never quite described.

That was an excellent contest entry, Everett, with just the right words to pull it off. I know it's not immediately you feel the sting of a cut. Well done, this should do very well. Good luck! :)) Sandra

This poem describes a violent and painful event, specifically, someone being stabbed with a knife and bleeding from the wound. The language used is simple and straight-forward, which effectively conveys the horror of the situation.

I have to stop laughing so I can give you my stars. Would have been six but they`re all gone. You deserve one of them. This was just too funny. Good luck.

Yes, that action, ee, would certainly be a horror alert.
Great job with the syllable count per line and the end
rhymes. Your few syllables, as required, told a horrific
story. The color scheme was perfect for your well though
out words.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

As an RN I've seen victims come into the ER oblivious to their wound...a bit of blood, a torn shirt... and then the horror as they realize the truth of the trauma. Nice 5-7-5. No horror like a knick of reality!

This reminds me of the movie: The Menu. Yikes slice and dice. Reminds me of all the slice and dice horror movies. You did a great job of portraying the horror movies. Again, nicely done.

Ouch! Of all the horrifying things that could happen and be written about, how did you ever think of this? It's creative, and super rich in imagery, with a knife, shirt, breast, and blood in just a few words. Best wishes in the contest.

Yikes! I don't know what that must have felt like, but it could not have been very pleasant. As a teen I engaged in knife play with my buddies, I would up slicing off the tip of my left thumb. It grew back, but the trauma of seeing what could happen, cured me of my fascination of messing around with knives forever.
