Thank you, Che, but it didn't even place. I'll take the opinions of the many poets who liked it over that of one judge. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Wow, this rather quite sums up the Brother's Grimm's Tales, scary things they are! I never got into their tales that much, but they do have a few that are pretty good! I really loved reading your tremendous poem here this morning! What a superior piece, Great Work!!
