This horror 5-7-5, Death from Above, has the right set up and theme and hints heavily to a brutal lynching with gory results which create the horrifying spectacle of the hanged man.

This is nicely done. The entire presentation works from the words in read to the image that accompanies the poem. But I think the poem on its own is excellent. Strong and uncomfortable imagery is shared here. With just three lines you do share horror. Well done.

A vivid image is conveyed through this 5/7/5 piece. The theme corresponds well with the writing prompt- horror. The image accompanying this poem highlights the theme,effectively.

Dear Mystery Writer,

Well, this is certainly suitable for a horror contest. Nice. I am not sure what the blood has to do with hanging, though. Generally, hanging is a nice, neat way to die, which is why so many choose it (except for bodily functions, sometimes).

I'd be interested in your comments and explanations?

Your syllables are just right but you may want to add a flag for violence. Good luck!

    Thanks for your review. I was thinking of someone being killed and hung up there hence the dripping blood. Maybe I'm weird lol.
    Flag for violence??

    Did you create this in regular or advanced editor?

    Advanced. Is there a problem with it?
reply by robyn corum on 12-Apr-2021
    Nope. Go in to 'edit'. Scroll down toward the bottom and look for the buttons you can use to show people there are certain things included like sex, violence, or mature content.

    I am suggesting you add the button for violence. Some people will have a hard time with the person handling from a noose and the graphic language. Just a thought. Yours to use or not, as you choose.

This is quite a shocking image:"Blood drips from above

puddle forming down below

Body left hanging", but I am not sure if when you hang yourself you lose blood:) or maybe it's a metaphor about God's grief of losing another child? Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.
