An interesting poem. Was it an accident or something more nefarious? Either way, it's a mystery as to how the poison got there to begin with. Thank you for sharing.

This is a clever and well written Story/poem contest entry. During in this poem, you told a complete story and you included the necessary words. I enjoyed reading and want to wish you the best of luck.

Comment from royowen
I'm decidedly not terribly fond of horror, but I am of fine poetry, and that's what this articulately delivered poem is. The narrative is smooth, important in a story poem, although there is no distinct meter here, the abcb rhyming is tight, as is the great theme. Well done, blessings Roy

Royowen - what an incredibly kind review. I appreciate the considerate words, excellent rating, and blessings. Thank you for your willingness to read a work that doesn?t fall into your interests (horror), and providing insightful feedback in spite of it! Made my day - thank you!

Well done
Comment from Boogienights
An interesting poem in an unique setting. You don't often find murder happening on a movie set. It definitely adds some high glamor to the story. But...who did it? :)

Boogienights - Thanks for the fun review! I conceptualized this one as accidental overdose ? but could there be something more sinister? Absolutely! Thank you for your read through, the excellent rating, and commentary - I appreciate it!
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Arsenic was the poison often used by wives to kill their husbands in Victorian Britain and they banned the sale of it in shops in a bid to stop the deaths. This is a horror write as it is a terrible way to die, a story of murder by poisoning here, love Dolly x

Comment from lyenochka
This was very clever to weave an entire mystery story into a rhyme poetic form. I like how you dropped hints and kept the reader guessing until you revealed the cause of death at the end. Best wishes in the contest!!

Lyenochka - thank you for your generous review. I alway love a poem that tells a story and thought this might be a cool topic to try out. I?m psyched it read as a full mystery to you. Thank you very much for your thoughtfulness and time in reading the work; I appreciate it!
Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Brilliant! I confess I wouldn't have figured this out--I appreciate the notes--in retrospect, I discern the clues of flushing sans injury, a hallmark of poisoning.

Elizabeth - wow! Thank you for this incredible review. I?m glad the story came through and that you picked up on some of the poisoning hallmarks - always fun when reading through a mystery! Thank you again.
Comment from Theodore McDowell
Very creative poem. It is a good mystery story that leads from clue to clue and you obviously included the required words. It reminds me of a mini Agatha Christie mystery. Well done.

This was engrossing. I was one hundred percent embedded in the mystery from start to finish. What a great contest entry - so far the best one I've read. Good luck to you with this!!
