Sad Dizain

So sweet was Hope. Not one soul would she harm. And now in college, living on her own, she’d met a young man with good looks and charm. One night she failed to answer her cell phone. Was she with somebody or all alone? The guy she’d met called friends and made a plan to search for her. For days they all would fan out through the woods and city. Where was Hope? Police could find no clues; meanwhile the man cleaned out his van and trashed his knives and rope. Written May 19, 2016 for SAd Dizain contest of Laura Loo

Not merely sad, but downright tragic ... it's sick what some people will do. The frankness of your words make for a heart-wrenching read.

Hi Andrea, You have penned a good piece. As I began to read it instantly put me in the mind of dateline ID or one of those shows. You captured the of pure evil very well. That man knows where she is. Excellent job. A undeniable 7- Alexis

Exactly why I was so over protective while my kids were growing up Andrea. You just can't be too careful. Your poem was dark and gave me chills! #7. ;)

Not exactly a happy tale. Please take a look at my latest - it is not too cheerful either - but it means something to me. Peace & Love Matthew Ansih
