This seven-word poem, Fatal Fun, has the proper word count and
acknowledges the eternal loss of a soul just beginning to live. Tragic.

Hello, my friend,

Great way to use your seven words. You wrote a poem using seven words in a concise manner and it makes a big impact on the reader. Good job. Good luck in the contest.

Such a strong message in so little of words. It's amazing how we can get our message across without a long poem. Thank you for sharing, NB

In its brevity, this poem speaks volumes and volumes. Great usage of word economy.

The poem can have double meanings:

1) The obvious is mother was killed in a poem
2)The second meaning is a mother's love taken away from the her family and her world in general.

Either meaning, the poem packs a punch and pulls at heartstrings.

Good luck in the contest.

Good luck in the contest.

A very well-written poem warning against drink and drive. The one drinking ends the fun of life when they take an innocent life after drinking unril they are too drunk.to drive.

Touching. The idea of a mother losing their child, or a child losing their mother, is heart-wrenching. And you left the poem open to either interpretation. Nice work.

My only suggestion is to break the third line so drunk is on its own line, followed by driver on its own as well. I think that would visually flow better, and emphasize the words killer, drunk and driver even more. Just my two cents, your mileage may vary.

A fine poem encompassing a lot in 7 words. Good luck in the contest!

This is a very well written seven word poem about a mothers worst nightmare. You used very good descriptive wording and very good imagery. Best wishes in the contest. Teri
