Oh yeah, I wonder who in the world this could be, oh great mystery writer. Lol. Anyways, I really enjoyed this rhymed quatrain. The combination of aesthetic, sound and linework is flowing perfectly in this dark rhymed quatrain. It feels strangely familiar ;) Lol. Best of luck in the contest, buddy, good work on this one.

Hah, thanks, 'Chup. I'm gonna need all of the luck I can get on this one...and THEN some, LOL!
Comment from Green Lake Girl
Can't imagine who wrote this! Loved the sound and "moving parts" of this piece. I can guess that no amount of locks would keep The Reaper away. Very well done. I hope you do well in the contest.

Comment from caromel
Well written and cleverly done. I am ALWAYS telling my husband to lock the door. He never listens. Hope I don't end up like this guy, and if I do, I'm definitely coming back to haunt my husband for not locking him out. Great job and good luck in the contest!

Comment from Leineco
I should have known you'd enter this! There goes my five dollars LOL
I really don't think, if she had locked the door it would have made a difference! When the reaper comes a calling', he simply drifts right in.
the only advice that I can give
is pray for all you're worth!!

Hah, nah, you'll be okay, trust me. Anyway, it's always good to write for a prompt, right? It forces us to write for a specific topic, or format.
Anyhow, I'm really glad you liked this, Leineco, and I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

Ya, I'm a sucker for the prompts too :-) I like the challenge of writing as "exercise". (My own imagination isn't always overflowing, so I like the daily kick startā?¦plus, it gives me breathing space, to get away from whatever I'm obsessing on - writing wise. I tend to fine tune, to too fine a point LOL)

I know the feeling, believe me!
Comment from Godbreathed
Ahhh yes the Grim Reaper..This is simply impeccable!!! 1st.You nailed this writers prompt with out a doubt in my mind..2nd. all of the poetic tool's and device's that have been employed have been skillfully utilized. Which includes very good imagery, more then adequate rhyme scheme, excellent word choice and usage..Need I say more..? OK.. 3rd. The visual could not have been any better..And of course the poetic expressions where eerily well laid out and presented.. I rarely give sixes..But I don't think there is any way this wonderful piece can be improved..I enjoyed reading it and reviewing it..!

Comment from sweeterpie12
This had a great rhyme scheme, and I like the theme of the grim reaper and the poet's use of imagery. The apostrophe in this poem also helps convey the sense of hopelessness the speaker feels.

Thanks a bunch, sweeterpie 12. Tell me what you didn't like about it so I can get it up to a higher quality standard. I mean, you gave me a four star rating, so there must be something, right? I'd sure like to know what it is so I can change it.
Thanks, again...
