I did feel it, very expressive. I hurt with it for a minute. But know that i disagree with making others feel guilt for having an abortion. Maybe they were selfish, maybe they couldnt take care of the child, and did what they thought best. Show me some of your pain, something that hurts you, makes you cry, i want your emotions. I see you expressing nothing of yourself, but pride and worship. Your poetry will die with you if you dont go deeper. Be an immortal.

Interesting perspective with a good use of imagery. Good luck in the contest. Thank you for your blog response. So you "can't say no." Bet that could get you into trouble. Hope not. Have a good day my friend. Stay warm. Karen
