This was a really dramatic setting for a poem about betrayal. You managed to include some action along with the emotional content.
Very well written. Good luck with the contest.

This has a great storytelling feel to it. I like how words lead you to the end. It felt you got more comfortable with the flow of the poem the more you wrote.

This is a very good narrative poem about betrayal. You set the scene skillfully, SHOWING the reader the two mountaineers, one about to betray the other. An excellent plot twist after Jean-Paul follows his code. Sometimes your meter is uneven, but overall this is an exciting tale. Rod
