Hi Yoni, very clever approach in this unique verse. Your words say much, and your other characters add to their impact! I especially like the bright notes in the last six lines. Regarding "She-Demon Expelled," I think we are all better off without people who take advantage of us. Love, Carolyn

Very cleverly done! Language is just that... language. Only when it is used to demean or disfigure does it become dangerous... BRAVO my dear! Best wishes, Keith

Yoni - You know I paroled from Prison with a stack of poems and as you can imagine they were all rather explicit in their language. I joined this site and every poem I posted I had to omit many profane words from and to be totally honest I think some of the meaning was lost in the process. This poem was very witty and rest in an area that I personally see both sides of - Any how I reckon "It is what it is" and its all for the greater good, God Bless, MJ
