Comment from Dean Kuch
Well...you know if it pertains to horror, I am going to be all over it! That being said, I liked this right from the very beginning, what with the 'gelatinous goo', and all.
The poetic prose you chose; ie, the WORDS you utilized, made this chilling, terrifying little tid-bit a pleasure to read. The alliteration was nicely done too, with 'stinking' & 'thinking', 'shrinking' & 'sinking', among others.
The last stanza was great, as the murdered/conjurer goes off, in search of another unwilling victim, and leaves the old one rotting and sinking in the swamp.
What more could any aficionado of horror ask for?
5 out of 5 skulls...

I really do thank you for the enthusiastic and detailed review. Sometimes I respond too briefly to reviews. Thanks for an encouraging and light-hearted response.

Hey, no worries. I do the same thing sometimes too!
Comment from Ira White
From the first line I was horrified by reading this poem. The rhymes worked well and carried the poem along. It got more terrifying as I read and more gross. But the poem did not just rely on grossness to scare. The actual actions of the Wizard were scary especially using a cranial probe to see what the subject is thinking.
