Wow, Dean. I'm not at all familiar with this form of poetry, but I'd say you more than met the parameters of the contest. Superb use of your unique imagery, giving this great impact. Good luck with this super contest entry!

This was the best one I've read, Dean. You are so gifted. Yes, the world is insane and war is deplorable. You wrote this to make sense of it all. You took the time to work it out. Or maybe it just comes to you. So well written. It shows mw, the reader, that you can make sense with few words. Just awesome!

I like your entry for the prompt very much. You stuck to the rules. The general layout and subject are original. We saw a thriller about 3 women buried alive and they died.

You have followed the constraints of this poem very well following its evolution of form and powerful words relating to the overall subject of death and isolation from the living. Good luck in the contest.

Hi Dean
Mankind has been fighting since the beginning of time. It's no wonder that aliens won't land on the lawn in front of the White House. Someone would surely shoot them. Better to study us from a distance. Today, there's fighting going on in Crimea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Gaza. Aliens must scratch their heads.
I have to admit, I'm not a fan of this type of poem. It's hard to read, and likely quite difficult to write. But you have followed the rules very well, and as usual, a great presentation. The picture says it all..."pain, suffering and inhumanity".
Good Luck in the contest!
cheers

I am so weary every time I hear about war in different parts of the world. We must put an end to war, before it put an end to us... Things are becoming horrible due to advancement of technology.
Can't miss this entry... I hope the best for you, my friend...

An astounding poem in what it seems a very challenging style.
But to me is the powerful images of truth about man inhumanity
to man since humanity exists. Is a tragic truth. Pili

Hi Dean - This is truly a great blitz poem - quite brutal in parts and moving as I'm sure that is what you intended. I like 'mutated/mutilated' - strong stuff - good read. Good luck in the contest. Kine regards Dorothy x
