Hey Jaq - very nicely done. I like the minimal lines and the minimal punctuation. I have learned a lot while at this site - among other things not to be a strict Canonite but to appreciate the art form.

Comment from kiwijenny
I like the imagery and I fully concur that words either cut or heal . They are powerful. I liked the last lines the best.
Thank you for beautiful imagery.

Comment from Maureen's Pen
Hi Jaq, a powerful post and well penned as always. Thought provoking post - though usually those that need the shake up don't see the lesson or the guidance.
Stand strong girl.:)
Thanks for sharing.

I can only hope it reaches the right people Maureen, but I guess even if they did read it they would indeed miss the point. Thanks once again girlie, hugs JAq xxx
Comment from J. Dark
This is an interesting and thought-provoking free verse, Jaq. Words are powerful tools which can be used to persuade and manipulate or alternatively reassure or soothe. Their effect upon us is quite sublime, when you consider it is only language. Well written - I thoroughly enjoyed this.
Kindest of och aye the nu regards,
Julie :-)

Comment from reconciled
This reminds me of the age old adage "liar liar pants on fire"...and..."stupid head"...-wink- Hi...Jaq. Exceptionally well written. I think that's probably why I don't hate her....it wasn't like that.....not that I'm aware of anyway. Yea, that would make me cold as a stone. Anyway Lady, you are a wealthy woman with a treasure of love to share....do not fret in despair , your Romeo awaits around the corner for his love with golden heart and soft curled hair.... its early-wink- lol love you Michael

LOL, Michael you are such a sweetheart. Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I'm a wee bit sad because two people were banned today for speaking the truth. Mikenbel was banned for standing up for Indie and the injustice she suffered. I am leaving soon, as it seems, that to cheat is acceptable behaviour. Thank goodness there are more like you than the other one.
Love ya, Jaq xxx

good alliteration and strong verb choices in deceive and drag
good alliteration in watched as I withered, and I like the rhyme with slithered
Powerful expression of heartfelt emotion in good poetic form :-) Brooke

Comment from Jean Lutz
Indeed words do leave a lasting mark on the soul. With this creation you have said a lot and managed to deliver it all in an attractive binding. I love the artwork. I miss the days of pen and ink.

Comment from Scarbrems
A sad, haunting poem, full of hurt. Yes, words can be brutal, but don't let them break you. You write so very eloquently, my friend
